Les Hautbois A La Chambre Du Roi

Whilst flutes, oboes and bassoons were often employed in music performed in the open air, as we have already documented in Les Fastes de la Grande Ecurie, they also made contributed greatly to the introduction of wind instruments into the other musical institutions of Louis XIV's court. This, however, was only possible thanks to the many changes and alterations made to these instruments so that they might better blend with the violins and viols. Here they appear in the Chambre du Roi.
