  2. History: That year
  3. 1930

The year 1930 in classical music and in lyrical art

1930. With other artists, Béla Bartók, Maurice Ravel and George Gershwin influenced their time (modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, such as Lorin Maazel, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “The Nose, Op. 15” de Dmitri Shostakovich, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.

All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1930 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 350 of these moments for 1930.
