Thanks for those links, The sound of musette with harpsichord, also on the
same youtube "page" is just a wonderful noise! - though it really needs the
bass viol too. However, I do find with musette music that a little goes a
long way, and all those Hotteterre tunes sound the same after a bit!
The Palladian Ensemble have recorded the Vivaldi/Chedeville Four Seasons, on
a CD called Les Saisons Amusantes - haven't checked to see if it's still
available - with Jean-Pierre Rasle on musette and Nigel Eaton, hurdy-gurdy.
Far better than the once very popular Nigel Kennedy version ;-)

Yes, hugely interesting. Thanks Paul!
Of greatest interest perhaps is the lecture-demonstration on this site by
Jean Pierre van Hees, one of the best of the very few expert players. A
fairly scary example of chanter dangling (ivory and silver items) and the
waving around of that set of exposed bourdon double reeds made me fairly
nervous.
Among other items, he plays passages from Chédeville's adaptation for
musette of Vivaldi's Four Seasons.
A very good find.
