  2. History: That year
  3. 1818

The year 1818 in classical music and in lyrical art

1818. With other artists, Ludwig van Beethoven, Aleksander Griboyedov and Franz Schubert influenced their time (classical era / romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Charles Gounod, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Moses in Egypt” de Gioachino Rossini, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1818 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 140 of these moments for 1818.
