  2. History: That year
  3. 1791

The year 1791 in classical music and in lyrical art

1791. With other artists, William Jones, Joseph Haydn and Giovanni Paisiello influenced their time (classical era / romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “The Magic Flute” de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1791 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 110 of these moments for 1791.
