Wind instruments of the pre-romantic orchestra (based on Othon Vandenbroeck’s “The main treatise on all wind instruments for composers”)
Abstract
The article analyzes the organological aspects of the late classical orchestra. The author also provides brief descriptions of the structural variations of wind instruments of this period. Among the many wind instrument models that emerged in the late 18th century, the treatise describes those that remained in musical practice throughout the first quarter of the 19th century.
