This lively and comic dance, says Chalco, "brought to an end the most splendid and astonishing spectacle that Italy had witnessed." In 1487 Nicolo de Corregio Visconti produced at Ferrara his fable "Cephale et l'Aurore." In this there were choruses of nymphs, vows to Diana, dialogues between Corydon and Thyrsis and other pastoral dainties.
Her opera, "Cephale et Procris," was successfully given at the Academic Royale in 1694. Another composer of the same century was Mme. Louis, whose operetta, "Fleur d'Epine," met with a good reception. In the eighteenth century, Henriette de Beaumesnil was one of the foremost musical women in France.
