In Gloria Rose's 1972 paper for The Musical Quarterly (vol.58 no.3. pp.420-435), she says that 63 pieces are extant from this opera, of which 57 are for solo voice (33 for soprano, 18 for tenor, and 6 for bass). The remaining 6 pieces are for 2 voices. The accompaniments vary from continuo to strings/continuo; 3 are for strings, cornetto, continuo, and 2 are for solo cornetto and continuo. The tag has been constructed from this description.
