The year 1905 in classical music and in lyrical art
1905. With other artists, Alexander Scriabin, Camille Saint-Saëns and Erik Satie influenced their time (romantic era / modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as André Jolivet, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Salome, Op. 54” de Richard Strauss, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1905 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 310 of these moments for 1905.
