  2. History: That year
  3. 1799

The year 1799 in classical music and in lyrical art

1799. With other artists, Muzio Clementi, François-André Danican Philidor 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 François-André Danican Philidor. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13, “Pathetique”” de Ludwig van Beethoven, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1799 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 1799.
