  2. History: That year
  3. 1987

The year 1987 in classical music and in lyrical art

1987. With other artists, Claudio Abbado, Astor Piazzolla and Mstislav Rostropovich influenced their time (modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Jascha Heifetz. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “The Light” 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 1987 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 280 of these moments for 1987.
