  2. History: That year
  3. 1838

The year 1838 in classical music and in lyrical art

1838. With other artists, Gioachino Rossini, Niccolò Paganini and Frédéric Chopin influenced their time (romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Georges Bizet, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Scenes from childhood, Op. 15” de Robert Schumann, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1838 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 160 of these moments for 1838.
