I recently accomplished a search for musette music.
I found 19 pieces, most written within the past 10 years. Only about 3 or 4 pieces
were from before 1970.
Oboe soloist Ernest Rombout is the foremost advocate for "piccolo oboe"/
musette nowadays. He has a cadre of composers writing musette pieces for him routinely, including Samuel Andreyev.
Ernest also plays piccolo Heckelphone. About half a dozen pieces pieces or so have been written so far specifically requiring piccolo Heckelphone instrumentation.
Whereas, the piccolo oboe has a very limited use or appeal in my estimation, I surmise that if Heckel were to revive production of the piccolo Heckelphone, it would inspire composers and players.
Sadly, only about 6 or 7 finished piccolo Heckelphones exist.
