The year 1775 in classical music and in lyrical art
1775. With other artists, Leopold Mozart, Joseph Haydn and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach influenced their time (classical era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as François Adrien Boieldieu, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Piano Sonata No. 11 in A major, “Alla turka”” de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1775 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 100 of these moments for 1775.
