  2. History: That year
  3. 1726

The year 1726 in classical music and in lyrical art

1726. With other artists, Tomaso Albinoni, George Frideric Handel and Johann Sebastian Bach influenced their time (baroque era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as François-André Danican Philidor, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Alessandro” de George Frideric Handel, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1726 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 70 of these moments for 1726.
