	Digital Booklet

"Four Stars ... an excellent and revelatory program ... the playing of the small band, including the three chalumeau players is stylish, while the recording is mellow and atmospheric. If you’re already a Graupner initiate you’ll want this; if you’re not, this is a very good place to start an acquaintanceship." - Audiophile Audition The chalumeau, forerunner of the clarinet, is in the spotlight on this album from Ars Antiqua Austria performing works by Christoph Graupner, considered one of the most important composers for the instrument. The chalumeau is thought to have been developed in the late 17th century by the same Nuremberg instrument builder who invented the clarinet and has been used by many composers of the Baroque and pre-classical music periods. It was not until the late Baroque era that the loud and powerful Baroque clarinet became more popular and the chalumeau slowly disappeared from the musical scene.
