1556, those moments that counted
1556. With other artists, Adrian Willaert, Giovanni da Palestrina and Hans Sachs influenced their time (renaissance era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “Comment sont ils noz Roys” de Clément Janequin, for example.
All these moments, more or less notable, make the year 1556 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 30 of these moments for 1556.
