  2. History: That year
  3. 1841

The year 1841 in classical music and in lyrical art

1841. With other artists, Mikhail Glinka, Felix Mendelssohn and Frédéric Chopin influenced their time (romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Antonín Dvořák, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Nabucco” de Giuseppe Verdi, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1841 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 170 of these moments for 1841.
