1792, from day to day
1792. With other artists, Joseph Haydn, William Jones and Giovanni Paisiello influenced their time (classical era / romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Gioachino Rossini, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Requiem in D minor” de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1792 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 90 of these moments for 1792.
