Composers of the baroque period (1600-1750) were particularly fond of it. It was used in the operas of Claudio Monteverdi. Henry Purcell, Francois Couperin, Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frederick Handel compos ed music for the recorder. After 1750 the recorder was almost completely forgotten. In the early 20th century Arnold Dolmetsch of England revived the use of the recorder. Dolmetsch felt the performance of old music should be played on the instrument, for which it was written.
