FROM ALBUM NOTES by Luigi Magistrelli:

Benedetto Carulli (1797-1877) belongs to the Milanese clarinet school and specifically to the history of the Milan Conservatory, having studied and then taught there for almost half a century! He was the teacher of Romero Orsi (who then founded a clarinet factory ) and above all of Ernesto Cavallini, great well-known italian clarinet virtuoso, celebrated all over Europe, who took over his position of principal clarinet at La Scala in 1840, keeping this chair for 20 years and then he emigrated to San Petersburg. Carulli was a member of the noted wind quartet of La Scala Theatre with the flutist G. Rabboni, oboist C. Yvon and the bassonist A. Cantù. Cavallini dedicated six of his 30 Capricci and the Romance Un pensiero (A Thought) to his pupil. Benedetto Carulli was a student of Vincent Adami, clarinet and basset horn teacher at the new founded Conservatory of Milano (1808). […]

From an Italian firm of publishers. On 22 November 1822 Giuseppe Antonio Carulli (1762–1830), a music copyist at the Milan Conservatory, applied on behalf of his son Luigi for a licence to print music. He described himself as a native of Assago (Milan), 60 years old and with four children, among them Luigi, who had already been working as a music engraver and printer, and Benedetto, professor of clarinet at the conservatory. The licence was granted on 4 January 1823 and for several years, as ‘Editore dell’Imperiale Regio Conservatorio’ of Milan, G.A. Carulli issued works by conservatory teachers or former pupils and didactic material, especially vocal and keyboard tutors. In 1827 he began the Nuovo repertorio musicale: Produzioni dei più accreditati maestri ridotte per organo e pianoforte; 24 fascicles had appeared by 1830. In 1828, with plate number 167, his address was given as S Radegonda 984. Plate number 173 marked the beginning of the Collezione completa di Muzio Clementi, an edition based on Breitkopf & Härtel's.

Carulli worked with Secondo Colombo in 1829, and the next year began a new series, the Biblioteca musicale economica per flauto, organo e pianoforte. On his death, his son Benedetto requested transfer of the patent; this was granted on 11 June 1830, though Benedetto's activity lasted less than a year. In 1832 the Carulli list of about 300 publications was acquired by Ricordi, who entered them in his catalogue with the numbers 6113–61 and 6225–6339. Four years later another publisher, Giovanni Canti, set up in business by reprinting several Carulli editions, notably the Muzio Clementi collection.
