CHORAU'LES and CHORAU'LA (χοραύλης). A musician who accompanied the Chorus of the Greek theatre, or any other number of singers in a concert generally, upon the double pipes; as contradistinguished from auloedus, who played an instrument solo without vocal music. (Suet. Galb. 12. Plin. H. N. xxxvii. 3. Mart. Ep. ix. 78.) The costume and instrument of these performers are shown by the figure (Choraules/1.1) annexed, from a drawing by Fulvius Ursinus, in the Vatican Library, copied from a statue discovered on the Appian way, with the name CHORAULES inscribed upon its base.
