The year 1683 in classical music and in lyrical art
1683. With other artists, Johann Pachelbel, Jean-Baptiste Lully and Samuel Pepys 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 “Phaëton” de Jean-Baptiste Lully, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1683 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 1683.
