"È morto il mio Gesù" is an aria from the oratorio Morte e sepoltura di Christo (engl.: Christ's Death and Burial) by Antonio Caldara. The libretto was created by Francesco Fozio; the work was first performed in Vienna in 1724.[2]
The role of Maria di Giacobbe was first created by Giovanni Carestini.[1][3]
"Maria di Giacobbe"
In the medieval Legenda aurea, Cleophas is directly identified with Alphaeus, the father of James the Younger (Mt 10:28 EU), so that his wife Mary is regarded as the mother of James the Younger, Simon Zelotes and Judas Thaddeus. This identification is also held today by some, mostly Catholic interpreters, who assume a sameness or alternation of names of one and the same person due to the similarity of the names, as it occurred more frequently with the Graecization of Jewish names (the assumption presumes a person with the seminitic name "Chalpai").(Translated from German Wikipedia)[4]
The disciple called "James" in the English King James Bible (and in most other translations) is called "Giacobbe" in Italian ("Jakob" in German).[5]
