The year 1723 in classical music and in lyrical art
1723. With other artists, Domenico Scarlatti, Alessandro Scarlatti and François Couperin influenced their time (baroque era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Carl Friedrich Abel, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Violin Concerto in E major, Op. 8 No. 1, “The Four Seasons : Spring”” de Antonio Vivaldi, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1723 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 60 of these moments for 1723.
