The year 1975 in classical music and in lyrical art
1975. With other artists, Aram Khachaturian, Carl Orff and Dmitri Shostakovich influenced their time (modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Dmitri Shostakovich. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Viola Sonata, Op. 147” 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 1975 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 1975.
