Sažetak

Celebratory years with vast
number of composers are rare. After 1985
(Bach, Haendel, D. Scarlatti) and around
2010 (Haydn, Schumann, Chopin), there
comes the great year of 2013. These composers
are highly sensitive with occasionally
severe mental disturbances and lived
past 60 years on average, in accordance to
the period in which they lived. The composers
we considered worthy of special
mention are Gesualdo, Corelli, Gretry,
Wagner, Verdi and Britten. The composers
mentioned above lived relatively long con-sidering that their siblings (and fellow citizens)
of that era were dying at half their
age. In the earlier centuries the causes of
death were usually infectious diseases-plague
at first followed by tuberculosis (Gretry),
etc.). In later centuries, thanks to better
diagnosis, degenerative diseases were dominant
(Wagner, Verdi, Britten).
