	In 1679-1680, the entire Leopold court took refuge in Prague for fear of a plague epidemic. Nicolò Minato stayed with the Leopold court in Prague. During his eight-month stay, at least nine of Minato's works (serenatas, operas, oratorios) were performed at Prague Castle, seven of them completely new. Of these, the three-act opera ''La patienza di Socrate con due mogli'' (Socrates' Patience with Two Women), which was probably the first comic opera ever performed in Prague, is particularly significant. He also made his mark in the history of Czech music with two sacred compositions, the oratorio ''Abelle di Boemia overo S. Wenceslao'' (The Czech Abel or St. Wenceslaus) and the sepolkra ''La Sacra Lancia'' (The Holy Lance). The St Wenceslas oratorio is probably the only Italian Baroque oratorio on this theme. In ''La Sacra Lancia'', an allegorical play with a Passion theme, he used the actual motif of the plague threat and some contemporary Prague realities. ''Antonio Draghi'' composed the music to these texts. The work was performed during Lent in 1680 in the Church of All Saints at Prague Castle.
