  2. History: That year
  3. 1902

The year 1902 in classical music and in lyrical art

1902. With other artists, Camille Saint-Saëns, Alexander Scriabin and Gustav Mahler influenced their time (romantic era / modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Richard Rodgers, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Pelléas et Mélisande” de Claude Debussy, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1902 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 290 of these moments for 1902.
