'Baroque Wind Band and Wind Ensemble Repertoire' is the seventh volume in Dr. David Whitwell's ground breaking thirteen-volume 'History and Literature of the Wind Band and Wind Ensemble' series. This volume is a companion to the third volume in this series, 'The Baroque Wind Band and Wind Ensemble'. Of great significance is the continuation of the church wind ensemble forms of the sixteenth century and the extraordinary multi-movement concert Hautboisten repertoire of the Baroque. The Hautboisten repertoire was a development of the earlier music of the Les Grands Hautbois and directly developed into the Harmoniemusik of the Classical Period. Whitwell's meticulous scholarship reveals the continuous history of the wind ensemble, from its earliest roots to the nineteenth century - an unbroken tradition of wind music that music scholars have never been fully able to appreciate until now.
