1985, from day to day
1985. With other artists, Olivier Messiaen, Vladimir Horowitz and John Cage influenced their time (modern & contemporary era). That year would see the birth of future classical or lyrical artists, while others would disappear such as Emil Gilels. That year, new works would be composed, published or performed for the first time in public, such as “The Juniper Tree” 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 1985 a page in the history of classical and lyrical music to be discovered or rediscovered. soclassiq currently lists more than 310 of these moments for 1985.
