The year 1587 in classical music and in lyrical art
1587. With other artists, Vincenzo Galilei, William Byrd and Orlande de Lassus influenced their time (renaissance era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Canti concerti di Andrea e di Gio” de Giovanni Gabrieli, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1587 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 20 of these moments for 1587.
