It runs from 5:24 to 6:55 then from 7:32 to 8:10. Sorry don't know how to embed videos.
It's absolute divine and been driving me mad wondering who it is by. From my very limited knowledge sounds to be in the same genre of Delibes flower duet; Opera?

Thanks.

Indeed, this is an excerpt (near the end) from the Troisième Leçon de Ténèbres by François Couperin. You have it in this video, starting at 10:20:
