The french horn is typically pitched in F. Double horns are pitched in F and B-flat (they have a thumb valve that switches it from F to B-flat). Single B-flat horns aren't rare but are definitely not as commonly used.

What is the written pitch for a French horn if the concert pitch is F?

The written pitch for a French horn in F transposes down a perfect fifth. When a concert pitch of F is played, the French horn will sound a written pitch of C. Therefore, if a composer writes a C for the French horn, the horn will actually produce a concert pitch of F. This transposition is essential for composers and musicians to understand for accurate performance.

To transpose from concert pitch to horn pitch, you transpose it up a fifth or down a fourth. A fifth up from C4 would be G4, so you would play a G4 on the horn for a C4. Hope this helps =)
