  2. History: That year
  3. 1798

The year 1798 in classical music and in lyrical art

1798. With other artists, Muzio Clementi, Antonio Salieri and Luigi Boccherini 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 Christian Gottlob Neefe. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “The Creation” de Georg Philipp Telemann, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1798 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 80 of these moments for 1798.
