Sources used not to report the full name of this singer, generally referred to just as La Tour, Latour or Delatour.

The exact full name is now reported by Sylvie Bouissou in her article Latour, Jean-Paul Spesoller de, in Dictionnaire de l’Opéra de Paris sous l’Ancien Régime (1669–1791), tome III (H–O), pp. 413-414.
According to Rameau Le Site, this mute is credited to Cuvillier, as well as the singing character of Momus, but it seems to be impossible, because both characters appear together on stage
