keyboard reduction of 6 airs and a duet
probably first performed ca.1695-1700 in Rome
Full manuscript score and its separate parts for 5 voices (SSATB), female chorus (SSA), orchestra (trumpet, strings, lute, continuo) are preserved in the Bibliothèque Municipale de Lyon. It was copied for the Académie des Beaux-arts de Lyon, to which it belonged, probably by amateurs bringing back numerous works from their transalpine travels, as shown by the importance of Italian music in the Lyon collections.
Reconstitution and realisation by Trillat made in 1935
inserted booklet containing full libretto of the complete Oratorio.
