One of the most interesting compositions is Sola frà suoi più cari which is included in four different sources: in the manuscript at the Biblioteca Nazionale in Rome (I-Rn, Mss. mus. 56, fols. 37v–42r), in the Biblioteca del Conservatorio di Bologna (I-Bc, Q.43, fols. 92r–96r), in the Biblioteca Casanatense in Rome (I-Rc, 2490, fols. 60v–63r) as well as in the source discovered by Alessio Ruffatti in Hamburg (D-Hkm, RAR Bb-17/Italien, fols. 1r–6r). Michi’s Lament of Mary is based on a Canzone by Giambattista Marino (Lira, XVII) that he set to music in the form of an expressive, declamatory lament, which in the manuscript of the Biblioteca Casanatense (I-Rc, 2490) is entitled Lamento della Santissima Vergine.— Alexandra Ziane, Orazio Michi: contemporary testimonials, documents, and work, 2020
