Music school MOKRANJAC, Serbian oldest musical and educational institution, founded in 1899., represents the foundation of the musical culture and education in Serbia. Many important people from the world of music went through this school both as teachers and students - such people as musicologists, pedagogues from almost all the parts of the former Yugoslavia. Concert and opera life, orcherstras and chamber ensembles, other institutions and universities, musical editorial offices for radio and television - all those came from the work of the first Serbian music school.
