      APGRD Notes
                      This ballo tragico in cinque atti was performed as interval entertainment during opera performances at the fair in Padua in 1798. It is likely that it drew on Sophocles and/or Seneca. Its performances are recorded for the production of Francesco Bianchi's opera Daliso e Delmita (Sartori ID 7057). It is possible that the work is related to Clerico's other ballets on the subject: La morte d'Ercole, Milan 1790 (Sartori Ids 447 and 19180), La morte d'Ercole, Florence 1792 (Sartori Ids 3109 and 7094), Ercole e Dejanira, Parma 1798 (Sartori ID 24978). Clerico's work probably also influenced the work of his brother-in-law Panzieri, whose choreography La morte d’Ercole was staged in Trieste in 1798 (Sartori ID 10084).
