The year 1957 in classical music and in lyrical art
1957. With other artists, Jean Sibelius, Aram Khachaturian and Theodor W. Adorno influenced their time (modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Jean Sibelius. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Dialogues of the Carmelites, Op. 125” de Francis Poulenc, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1957 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 340 of these moments for 1957.
