1745, from day to day
1745. With other artists, Giuseppe Tartini, Alphonsus Maria de Liguori and Tomaso Albinoni influenced their time (baroque era / classical era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Jan Dismas Zelenka. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “The Art of Fugue” de Johann Sebastian Bach, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1745 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 80 of these moments for 1745.
