Articulation and the Flute Duets of Friedrich Kuhlau

German-born Danish composer Friedrich Kuhlau (1786-1832) published numerous volumes of flute duet music (Opp. 10, 13b, 39, 80, 81, 87, 102, and 110), which were popular in their time and are still staples in the library of the modern flutist. The examination of articulation within these duets serves as a catalyst to trace the practices and aesthetics of articulation in the early nineteenth century.
