From the period sources

Giovanni Morandi was a prolific composer, with a significant output of both sacred and secular works between the late 17th and early 18th centuries. His compositions include numerous cantatas, such as La Musa Armonica (1695), La Sirena Amorosa (1699), and Languidezza Amorosa (1698), alongside several operas like Falaride and Amorosa preda di Paride, both from 1684, and Alarico (1685), Ginevra (1690), and Il Conte di Bacheville (1696), according to the Biographical Dictionary of Musicians (1886). His sacred music encompasses multiple masses for four and five voices (1698, 1710), psalms (1699, 1700), and other liturgical pieces such as Lagrime armoniche, ossia il Vespero de defunti (1699) and Le Notti lugubri concertate ne’ responsori dell’ uffezio de’ morti (1700). His works were often published with opus numbers, spanning at least thirty-two known publications by 1705.
