The year 1983 in classical music and in lyrical art
1983. With other artists, Astor Piazzolla, Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein influenced their time (modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as William Walton. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Akhnaten” de Philip Glass, for example. That year, halls or orchestras would be founded or ceased to operate.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1983 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 320 of these moments for 1983.
