Then how about look at the scores we have, then re-edit your first post to eliminate those with no English horn?

Some eliminations from your list, from my "musical knowledge" (even having conducted some of them):
hautboisetcoranglais wrote:Symphony No. 4 in A Major, Op. 90 (Mendelssohn) NO
Overture to The Barber of Seville (Rossini) NO
Prelude to Act III of La Traviata (Verdi) NO
Hungarian March from the Damnation of Faust (Berlioz) NO
Turkish March (Behtoveen) NO
Pavanne (Faure) NO
Danse Macabre (Saint Saens) NO
Prelude to Act II of Lohengrin (Wagner) YES
Air from Orchestral Suite #3 (Bach) NO
1812 Overture (Tchaikovsky) YES
That's half your list (I would have to make informed guesses on the rest). Now you might want to go and do as others have suggested ;-)

Off the top of my head, I'd say that most of them do NOT have an Engl. Hrn. part except for possibly.

Irish Rhapsody No. 6 in d minor, Op. 191(Stanford)
Appalachian Spring (Copland)
Dance of the Comedians from the Bartered Bride (Smenta)

You'll have to check the scores of these yourself (my Copland scores are currently deep in a box underneath a pile of other boxes from my recent move and I don't have a score to the Stanford.)

Well i checked most of the scores on IMSLP and the only ones they actually provide with EH parts are Vocalise, 1812 Overture, and Prelude to Act II of Lohengrin. Otherwise they dont have many of the scores that i posted on there so if someone with high musical knowledge or just someone that knows the answer could tell me if the Stanford piece has an EH part if Bartered Bride has one and @ sbeckmesser could you please find outn for me if Appalachian Spring has one because i have no idea im not an avid listner of Copland.

Have a look here http://www.bdlo.de/katalog/komponisten.php
Its in german, but with a little trial and error you should be able to get to the specific works pages.
Appalachian Spring and Bartered Bride do not have eh.

According to the british music information website, the Stanford does not score eh as well

Thats the problem with secondary sources - good guess whom to trust.

However, bdlo only lists Rhapsody No.1, and you asked for No.6...

British Music Information web site is also down for me, but I remembered that No.6 was distributed by Boosey, and that would be the source of the bmic information.

As far as I can tell, the The Comedians suite (which I've only heard once), since it is, after all, for "small orchestra," and I don't recall any solos, does not have english horn.
