February 20th – On this Day in Music History

February 20, 2012

Is February 20th special?

What Happened on February 20th?

February 20th might just be one of the most musically active dates in history. Over the years, this day has seen the birth of influential composers, iconic recordings, and major cultural events in music and entertainment.

🎼 Notable composer birthdays on this day include:

  • Johann Peter Saloman (1745)
  • Ferdinando Carulli (1770)
  • Carl Czerny (1791)
  • Charles-Auguste de Bériot (1802)

🎶 Memorable moments in modern music:

  • In the 1960s and 70s, key recordings and performances shaped the rock and pop era.
  • Throughout the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s, February 20th saw major music releases, artist milestones, and industry-defining concerts.

🎤 And today? Maybe it’s your turn to start something great.

Whether you’re picking up an instrument for the first time or continuing your musical development, there’s no better time to get started. At Grosse Pointe Music Academy, we offer private lessons for all ages in guitar, piano, voice, drums, violin, and more.
