Composers initially favored the chalumeau, but the clarinet soon overtook it in repertoire and ubiquity. Estienne Roger in Amerdam published a set of duets for two chalumeaux in 1706 (prior to the first duets for clarinet). And in 1716, the same publisher released six volumes of duets for chalumeaux. In the first decades of the eighteenth century, the chalumeau was especially popular in the Habsburg court, as evidenced by chalumeau parts in over forth operas and oratorios. And the Denners have many orders for chalumeau from Dukes across Europe. Composers Fux, the Bononcici brothers, Vivaldi, and Telemann wrote for the chalumeau but chalumeau parts were not common in the second half of the century. In brief revival of chalumeau after 1760, Florian Gassmann included a chalumeau part in two pieces and chalumeau parts were included in several ballets in the 1770s. But, later renditions of these pieces transposed the chalumeau parts to clarinets or flute. The chalumeau was often included in musical dictionaries until the early nineteenth cent
