Which singer "Domenico" refers to is unclear. It is unlikely to refer to Domenico Gizzi, who is born too early and does not seem documented to ever sang Caldara. It cannot be ruled out that it might be Domenico Annibali who sang for Caldara later. However, it does not seem to be documented that he sang for Caldara in Vienna this early. He would have been around 12 at the time of the premiere.<ref name="Annibali"/> It seems most likely that "Domenico" refers to neither of the above. Further research is required.

"Domenico" is also the name of a castrato who, according to the score, sang the role of Timante in [[Demofoonte (Antonio Caldara)|Antonio Caldara's ''Demofoonte'']] in 1733. However, there are two different manuscripts at the Austrian National Library:

1) Lists the singer as "Domenico", 2) as "Domenicino". This, and the fact that 15 years had passed since "Santa Ferma" makes it unlikely that The Domenico of Demofoonte is the same as the one of Santa Ferma.

As a working hypothesis, we assume that the second "Domenico" is [[Domenico Annibale]]. However, further research is required.
