1773 C. Burney Present State Music in Germany I. 75 The suavial was meant for that sweet stop in Mr. Snetzler's organs, which he calls the Dulcian.

1829 V. Novello in V. Novello & M. Novello Mozart Pilgrimage (1955) 312 Monday Morning at Vienna Cathedral, 10 o'clock, July 27. Chorale... Sweet dulcian. No swell. Good voluntary in A minor.

1852 tr. J. J. Seidel Organ & its Constr. 95 Dulcian [Ger. Dulcian, Dulzian] is the same as ‘bassoon’, the latter having originated in an old instrument called the dulcian.

1921 G. A. Audsley Organ-stops & their Artistic Registration 112 The Dulcian, 8 ft., exists in the Echo of the celebrated Haarlem Organ.

1936 Organ (London) Jan. 145 The dulcian (to use Herr Jahn's words) is 'sweet, nasal and quinty'... Its gentle 'buzz' colours up the flue stops wonderfully.

1985 H. D. Blanchard Bach Organ Bk. ii. 67 Bach's Faggott 16'..is the only stop in his proposal for which he gives the pitch designation as ‘Fussthon’ (foot tone), which suggests that it may not have had full-length resonators but was, in fact, a Dulcian.

2. A double-reed woodwind instrument of the Renaissance period, an early form of the bassoon, made in one piece.Also known as the curtal (see curtal n. 5). It first appeared in Europe in the 16th cent., but English uses of the word dulcian only occur much later, originally in historical contexts. As a result of a revival of interest in the instrument in the 20th cent., it now features in some early music performances.
