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.

"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:
The singer who sang in the 1717 premiere of Antonio Caldara's ''[[Santa Ferma]]'' in Vienna is likely not identical to the Domenico who sang in Caldara's ''Demofoonte''.

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. However, further research is required.

Domenico Annibali was a castrato with a decades-long successful international career. He was most active in Dresden where he performed many works of Johann Adolph Hasse. He also premiered works by Porpora and was later a member of Georg Friedrich Händel's opera company at the Royal Opera. [1]

Years active1725–1764[1]

Regarding Caldara's Demofoonte, there are two different manuscripts at the Austrian National Library:

  1. Mus.Hs.17168/2 , Mus.Hs.17168/1-3 , Mus.Hs.17168/1
  2. Mus.Hs.17107/1-3 , Mus.Hs.17107/3 , Mus.Hs.17107/1

1) Lists the singer as "Domenico", 2) as "Domenicino".

That this Domenico refers to Domenico Annibali is a conjecture so far, and has not yet been corroborated.

It needs to be noted that the Booklet to the Album Caldara in Vienna lists the singer in the role of Timante at the premiere of Antonio Caldara's Demofoonte as Felice Salimbeni.

Note on the disambiguation

The singer who sang in the 1717 premiere of Antonio Caldara's Santa Ferma in Vienna is likely not identical to the Domenico who sang in Caldara's Demofoonte.

The former sang the role of the Angel (Angelo). [2][3]
