73 pag.
The cantata is one of the longest compositions in the repertoire for the Prince. It consists of fourteen text sections, opening with an instrumental sinfonia and concluding with a duet by the two protagonists Clori and Tirsi. A survey of the texts that Caldara set to music for Ruspoli between 1709 and 1716 immediately reveals their clear orientation towards the Arcadian-pastoral theme. Ruspoli, himself a member of the Accademia dell’Arcadia, thus placed himself ostentatiously in the tradition of this influential literary academy, and offered its members a weekly stage for years with the conversazioni in front of a Roman and international audience. Some academy colleagues were responsible for the textual basis of Caldara’s compositions; nevertheless, a clear attribution of the texts to an author is only possible in exceptional cases.
