Description
Forces: soprano, flute & continuo
Fillide is totally in love with Olindo and hopes that Cupid will support her love (she’s not confident!) while he is away (lontananza). A lovely, simple example of a single line obligato accompaniment to soprano and continuo.
The source is Münster Santini Sammlung Hs 3975, provided by Sascha Mommertz. The cantata is simply inscribed Cantata a voce sola con flauto and there may be some question as to the attribution to A Scarlatti, although Hs 3975 contains a large number of cantatas ascribed to A Scarlatti.
