  2. History: That year
  3. 1540

The year 1540 in classical music and in lyrical art

1540. With other artists, Hans Sachs, Thomas Tallis and Cipriano de Rore influenced their time (renaissance era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Giovanni Artusi, while others would disappear.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1540 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 40 of these moments for 1540.
