The article was written in honor of the centennial anniversary of the founding of the Saratov Conservatory. Upon analysis of the scholarly potential of this higher education institute an overall evaluation is given of the activities of the institutions which had laid its foundation prior to its actual opening: the Musical Classes organized by the Imperial Russian Musical Society (1873) and the Music College (1895), as well as the professional musicians whose efforts led to the creation of the first conservatory in the provincial area of Russia (after St. Petersburg and Moscow). The article examines the main historical stages of the existence of the Conservatory and the various trends of scholarly activity, and characterizations are given of the prominent representatives of professional musical education in Russia.

Keywords: musical education in Russia, the first Russian conservatories, Russian musicologists
