	Hummel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
		Hummel was born in Pressburg (what is now Bratislava, which is only about an hour from Vienna), which was at that point part of the Austrian Empire; he was, therefore, Austrian, as was Weidinger, and worked largely in Vienna, as did Weidinger.
		Hummel was, therefore, likely very familiar with Weidinger's instrument; let us not forget that while the Haydn was written in 1796, it was not premiered until 1800.
		Weidinger was continually experimenting with his instrument and tried several keys before his death, and Dahlqvist, in his monograph on Weidinger, states that the lower tessitura of the Hummel (as low notes are easier to produce on a higher instrument) suggests that Weidinger had a new instrument, perhaps with a wider bore.

		Hummel exerted a great influence through his virtuosity on the generation that followed him, both via his playing and his teaching.
		Hummel published six solo piano sonatas that reflect his developing compositional style and the musical changes of taste in the early nineteenth century.

		Characteristics of Hummel's Piano Concerto in B minor and the Concerto in A minor are obvious in Chopin's concertos.
		Hummel used many modern techniques in his sonatas and other pieces for piano by changing the classical harmonies and expanding the structure of the sonata itself.
		Piano was his primary instrument, and during his life he wrote eight piano concertos, ten piano sonatas, eight piano trios, a piano quartet and quintet, a great deal of four-handed piano music, along with compositions for many other instruments.

	Welcome to Mel Bay's Dulcimer Sessions® Web Magazine
		The hummel is a diatonically-fretted zither that is a German relative of the Appalachian mountain dulcimer.
		However, is mother was not so pleased with the instrument and grew tired with the buzzing and humming sounds of his practicing so she hid the instrument several times.
		The hummel's strings were strummed with a feather, and as a result of this the right end of the soundboard was worn to just half of its regular thickness.

		Hummel was the last major representative of the Viennese Classical School and the last remnant of the Classical tradition before the Romantic age blossomed.
		From 1816, Hummel served as Kapellmeister at the Stuttgart Court and from 1819 became Grand-Ducal Kapellmeister at the Weimar Court.
		Hummel was a concert pianist and it is not surprising that the role of the fortepiano dominates these works.

	The Johann Nepomuk Hummel Biography Page on Classic Cat
		Hummel was taught and housed by Mozart for two years free of charge and made his first concert appearance at the age of nine, at one of Mozart's concerts.
		This is unsurprising, considering that Chopin must have heard Hummel on one of Hummel's concert tours to Poland and Russia, and that Chopin kept Hummel's piano concertos in his active repertoire.
		Although Hummel died famous, with a lasting posthumous reputation apparently secure, his music was quickly forgotten at the onrush of the Romantic period, perhaps because his classical ideas were seen as old-fashioned.

	THE WORLD OF JENÖ HUBAY- Music & Arts CD-1164
		Hummel's 24 Etudes were his last major work for piano, and apart from the large Rondo for violin or flute and piano Op.
		After all, he was undoubtedly the greatest of all the pianists on the continent and a prolific composer for his chosen instrument.
		That Hummel's 24 etudes should be received so negatively is to some degree understandable as they are written with great restraint and are mostly of short duration.

	ETUDE - November 1940
		Some writers have given Giuliani credit for inventing this instrument, but it is a fact that it had been in use for some years previously; Giuliani, however, used it more extensively and wrote many pieces for terz guitar with accompaniment of string quartet, orchestra or piano.
		In 1815 he was engaged with the violinist, Mayseder, the pianist, Hummel, and a violoncellist from the royal opera, in giving what they named the "Ducaten Conzerte"; also a series of six musical soirees in the Royal Botanical Gardens of Schoenbrunn in the presence of the royal family and the nobility.
		Giuliani was a prolific composer for his instrument and during his lifetime the Opus numbers of his published compositions reached 150 while more than one hundred remained in manuscript.

	George Graham Reviews Mark Humme
		Hummel shows he's no slouch in the area of taste on his blues harp.
		Hummel get together with harmonica legend Charlie Musselwhite on High Steppin.' The album's liner notes point out that harmonica players tend to be "lone-wolf" personalities, and so harmonica collaborations are rare.
		The harmonica man proves himself to be a great practitioner of his instrument and an appealing vocalist whose influences come from various stylistic areas and eras of the blues from the jazzy jump-band sounds of Louis Jordan to the blistering Chicago blues of Muddy Waters, with Little Walter on the harmonica.

		Thus the historical provenance is obscure but because of its somewhat ubiquitous nature as a folk instrument up until the early part of the last century (in which, like so many as aspects of traditional culture, it suffered decline & in many cases eventual extinction) we can at least allow for a medieval origin...
		These Northern European diatonic board zithers are cited as being the ancestors of the Appalachian Dulcimer, an instrument still to be heard in folk-clubs the length and breadth of these islands.
		The instrument is designed in such a way that when played upon a tabletop the sound is greatly amplified; when played upon the lap however, the sound is soft and intimate, ideal for the accompaniment of both storytelling & traditional ballads; an ancient sound, both haunting and compelling in its elemental simplicity.

	Sleeve Notes - Classical Trumpet Concertos
		Composers such as Bach stretched the capabilities of the ‘natural’ instrument to its furthest regions and, as the Baroque era came to its end, players began to experiment with instruments that could provide a wider range of notes, and especially the chromatic notes that the natural instrument could not provide.
		Some English trumpeters were using a mechanical device on their instruments where a retractable tuning slide both corrected imperfect intonation and doubled the number of notes available on the limited scale of the ‘natural’ trumpet.
		In recreating the soundworld of Haydn and Hummel by using the solo instrument for which they wrote their unique trumpet concertos, amongst all the many remarkable features of the keyed trumpet what is perhaps most notable is the sweetness of the instrument’s sound, and its resultant ability to blend with all the orchestral wind instruments.
