  2. History: That year
  3. 1859

The year 1859 in classical music and in lyrical art

1859. With other artists, Edward Lear, Franz Liszt and Jacques Offenbach influenced their time (romantic era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Louis Spohr. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Un ballo in maschera” de Giuseppe Verdi, for example.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1859 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 240 of these moments for 1859.
