he history of the University of Tartu now contains the same number of years as a year contains days - 365. In its early days the University was as much a centre of intellectual life as it is now. In the University books were written and printed, disputes were held, music was made and listened to.

f the written texts of that time are of interest mostly from a historical point of view, then music is - by contrast - as completely enjoyable today as it was then. Let us celebrate our birthday with music as it sounded in the early days of the university.
