1648 in music
Summary
The year 1648 in music involved some significant events.
End of the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648), which had disrupted German cultural development during much of the first half of the 17th century.
July 1 – Ambrosius Reiner is appointed Kapellmeister at the court of Innsbruck, succeeding his father-in-law Johann Stadlmayr
December 6 – The marriage of Count Maximilian Willibald of Waldburg-Wolfegg and Clara Isabella Princess of Aarschot and Arenberg is celebrated with a performance of Bartholomäus Aich's musical-dramatic festival play Armamentarium comicum amris et honoris.
Alexis of Russia's 1648 law "About the correction of morals and the destruction of superstitions" (Об исправлении нравов и уничтожении суеверий) has banned all the secular music in Russia. It ordered to publicly burn all the folk instruments and those performers who disagree had to be physically punished and deported to Malorossia (modern Ukraine).
