The cor anglais (UK: /ˌkɔːr ˈɒŋɡleɪ/, US: /ˌkɔːr ɑːŋˈɡleɪ/ or original French: [kɔʁ ɑ̃ɡlɛ]) or English horn in North America, is a double-reed woodwind instrument in the oboe family. It is approximately one and a half times the length of an oboe.
The cor anglais is a transposing instrument pitched in F, a perfect fifth lower than the oboe (a C instrument). This means that music for the cor anglais is written a perfect fifth higher than the instrument actually sounds. The fingering and playing technique used for the cor anglais are essentially the same as those of the oboe and oboists typically double on the cor anglais when required. The cor anglais normally lacks the lowest B♭ key found on most oboes and so its sounding range stretches from E3 (written B natural) below middle C to C6 two octaves above middle C.
The pear-shaped bell of the cor anglais gives it a more covered timbre than the oboe, closer in tonal quality to the oboe d'amore. Whereas the oboe is the soprano instrument of the oboe family, the cor anglais is generally regarded as the tenor member of the family, and the oboe d'amore—pitched between the two in the key of A—as the alto member. The cor anglais is perceived to have a more mellow and plaintive tone than the oboe. Its appearance differs from the oboe in that the reed is attached to a slightly bent metal tube called the bocal, or crook, and the bell has a bulbous shape. It is also much longer.

~Rhapsodie pour Cor Anglais et Piano~ Here is a very rare piece; so rare that it has taken me, a Debussy fanatic, 15 years to finally track down and which is not anywhere to be found on YouTube, so far as I can tell. It is a transcription of the "Rhapsodie pour Saxophone Alto et Piano," for a lesser known instrument, a Cor Anglais (oddly enough, neither English nor Horn, as its translation from the French indicate), which is closely related to the Oboe, the difference being that the Cor Anglais plays at a lower pitch, in the key of F, where the Oboe plays in the key of C; a perfect fifth lower than the Oboe, the Cor Anglais is, thus, about 1 & 1/2 times longer than an Oboe. The piece is, as titled, a rhapsody for the woodwind instrument and piano, the Miriam Webster dictionary defining ...
