- Scope & Content:
-
Autograph full score. Written in ink on systems of 10 staves. In D; accompaniment scored for 2 violins, 2 oboes, 2 flutes, 2 horns, viola [?] (marked to play with the bass throughout), and unfigured bass. In 3/4 time; the end is followed by a single bar of the vocal line in 2/4, with the text ‘Bravi’. Headed in ink in a later hand ‘Originale di Jomelli’ (upper margin of f. 1r). With a note of presentation to Ludwig Landshoff by H.R. Zumsteeg, dated Stuttgart, 10 August 1898, in the right margin of f.2v; ‘(Enkel des Komponisten)’ has been added in pencil after Zumsteeg’s name. Number in Hinterberger catalogue IX added in pencil at foot of f.1r.
The text of this arietta and the Stuttgart provenance suggest, as the Hinterberger catalogue entry states, that it is from one of the comic operas or interludes composed by Jomelli for the Duke of Würtemberg during the years 1754-1768.
