Alessandro Grandi- Arie a voce sola, libro terzo, Venice, 1626
1 Troppo, troppo fedele
2 Deh, vaga mia Clori
3 É si grave’l tormento
4 Consenti pur e ti pieghi
5 Ninfa crudele
6 Ridete meco, Amanti
7 Non può ferir Amor
8 Quando Amor dentr’un cor prende ricetto
9 Sotto aspetto ridente
10 Amore io più non ard
11 Empio cor, più non ti credo
12 Gioite, danzate
13 Lontan dal tuo bel volto
14 I nostri voti il ciel
15 Mai più durò d’Amor si lunga Guerra
16 Rompi rompi mio core
17 Al seren del tuo volto
18 Io non vo’ pianger più
19 Superbetta sei pur colta
20 Cruda e proterva
21 Folle, folle chi crede
22 Sprezzami, Bionda, e fuggimi
23 Breve è la vita, Amor
Sospiro
