Destouches’s Issé premiered in 1697, just nine years after the death of Jean-Baptiste Lully. The tradition of featuring new operas at the court prior to a public premiere—common during Lully’s later years—was reinstated with this work. When Destouches revived the opera in 1708, he enlarged the original three-act work to five acts. This allowed for expanded divertissements, choruses, and more elaborate arias, which appealed to contemporary public preferences. The volume in the Virtual Rare Book Room is the five-act version.</p>Il martirio: dramma sacro per musica2019-04-02T19:20:19-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1469463/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1469463/"><img alt="Il martirio: dramma sacro per musica" title="Il martirio: dramma sacro per musica" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1469463/small/"/></a></p><p>Libretto for Il martirio di S.
