1764, from day to day
1764. With other artists, Christoph Willibald von Gluck, Georg Philipp Telemann and Leopold Mozart influenced their time (classical era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Jean-Philippe Rameau. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Symphony No. 1 in E-flat major” de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1764 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 70 of these moments for 1764.
