“Professor Ptaczek and his daughter will perform every evening on the melodious and novel instrument called the dulcina.”
COMMENT: The dulzaina is an instrument similar to the oboe, used in traditional folk music in some European countries. It was by no means a “novel” instrument in the 19th century.
