  2. History: That year
  3. 1848

The year 1848 in classical music and in lyrical art

1848. With other artists, Gioachino Rossini, Frédéric Chopin and Thomas Moore influenced their time (romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Gaetano Donizetti. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Radetzky-Marsch, Op. 228” de Johann Strauss I, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1848 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 180 of these moments for 1848.
