  2. History: That year
  3. 1759

The year 1759 in classical music and in lyrical art

1759. With other artists, George Frideric Handel, John Wesley and Jean Le Rond d'Alembert influenced their time (baroque era / classical era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as George Frideric Handel.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1759 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 1759.
