1657, from day to day
1657. With other artists, Heinrich Schütz, Giacomo Carissimi and John George II, Elector of Saxony 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 “12 geistliche Gesänge, Opp. 13” de Heinrich Schütz, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1657 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 30 of these moments for 1657.
