The year 1636 in classical music and in lyrical art
1636. With other artists, Gregorio Allegri, Claudio Monteverdi and Samuel Scheidt influenced their time (baroque 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 “Nun danket alle Gott” de Johann Sebastian Bach, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1636 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists 14 of these moments for 1636.
