Giovanni Battista CASALI (1715–1792). Musical manuscript, *L’amor mi consiglia*, 1745; oblong in-4 notebook of 7 pages (small cut in the upper margin of the first folio).

Aria on 10-line Italian-style paper, inscribed at the top “Del Sigre Gio Batta Casali 1745.” An Allegro introduction in 3/4 time on two staves precedes the aria (melody and lyrics) with accompaniment on one staff: “L’amor mi consiglia sue larti il martire”..., interspersed with ritornellos on two staves.
Casali, a prolific Roman composer, composed about ten operas, a dozen oratorios, some twenty masses, and numerous other sacred works; and counted Grétry among his students. We have been unable to identify this aria, another copy of which is held at the British Library (Add Ms 31623).
