Binding slightly soiled, stained, and warped; signature to upper board faded. Occasional stains and soiling, mostly marginal; some light showthrough. Executed in an accomplished hand, similar to contemporary examples from the Foucault workshop, which produced numerous copyist manuscripts of Lully operas. The identity of the scribe is unknown; the presence of distinctive semi-colon style bass and baritone clefs may, however, aid scholars interested in tracing other examples of the hand. The present manuscript offers a wealth of information regarding the performance practice of 17th century French operatic repertoire in domestic settings. The air "J'abandonne ma gloire," pp. 8-9, is notated for bass voice on a single staff, with figured bass. A singer could thus self-accompany from the figures while singing the vocal part, as the solo and accompaniment in that selection are identical. In "Dans l'Empire amoureux," pp. 54-56, a soprano/bass duet, the entrance of the bass vocal line, which differs from the soprano, is written out separately. By th.
