However, while most associate Fux with composing in the "stile antico", referring to him as the "Austrian Palestrina", due to his treatise Gradus ad Parnassum, he also had the ability to compose in the "stile moderno" as well, evident in his oratorios, such as "Santa Dimpna, Infanta d’Irlandia". For instance, many of the movements in the second half of "Santa Dimpna" make use of da capo aria form, and the eight (surviving) arias demonstrate the baroque concept of the "affect", as demonstrated by the vocal "coloratura" and instrumental figures.
