CD, A Catalog of Music for the Cornett :
For voices and instruments including: Lt, Lira da Br, Lira da G, Va da Lyra, Fl, Hp, Trb, Ctto, Ob, Org.

The instrumentation is not specific within the structure of the Balet but in the preface there is the following description for the beginning of the drama: “ . . . le silence ayant esté imposé, on ouit aussi tost derrriere le chasteau une note de hauts-boys, cornets, sacquebouttes, et autres doux instruments de musique: desquels l'harmonie" estant cessee, le sieur de la Roche. . . . ” (Also of interest in this work is an splendid engraving of 8 Satyrs playing cornetts.)
