1852, from day to day
1852. With other artists, Mikhail Glinka, Giacomo Meyerbeer and Thomas Moore influenced their time (romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Thomas Moore. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “La traviata” de Giuseppe Verdi, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1852 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 210 of these moments for 1852.
