  2. History: That year
  3. 1851

The year 1851 in classical music and in lyrical art

1851. With other artists, Robert Schumann, Mikhail Glinka and Gioachino Rossini influenced their time (romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Albert Lortzing. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Rigoletto” de Giuseppe Verdi, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1851 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 1851.
