Between 1710 and 1726 Clerambault published five anthologies of cantatas amounting to 20 works in all; additionally, there are some half-dozen separate cantatas of which La muse de l'Opera (1716) is one. Orphee comes from Book I (1710), not 1728 as stated on the jewel-case, Pirame et Tisbe from Book II (1713), and La mort d'Hercule from Book III (1716). These cantatas together give us a vivid picture of Clerambault's fertile imagination and his ability to draw on a wide range of affects.
