La vanità del mondo is an oratorio by Pietro Torri. The CD La Vanità del Mondo names Carlo Francesco Melchiori as the librettist[2]. The autograph at the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek does not credit any.

The first performance in Brussels took place in 1706 in French; the mentioned score is possibly from a Munich performance after 1715.[1]
