Thanks - Howard.   So it could be Lully's Theseus.  Must check that.

     an

        opera or ballet?

        The large French ms. of baroque guitar music F:PnMs.Res.F844
     includes a

        piece on p.263 with the title "Entree dAricie".

   Aricia might make an entrance in an opera with another title, such as
   "Phaedra" or

   "Theseus"
