Guest choirs arrive for the Tartu boys' song festival, 1976

Külaliskoorid saabuvad Tartu poiste laulupeole, 1976

In June 1976 Tartu held a song festival for boys' choirs, and guests came from Latvia, Belarus, Ukraine and Lithuania. Tõnu Sokk met them at Tartu railway station as the trains came in, then followed them into rehearsals. The festival's leaders, a Latvian chief conductor, the conductor of a boys' choir from Minsk and Lithuanian boys speak, and the recording catches songs such as Lüdig's 'Koit' and the boys' club song from the massed rehearsal.

Eesti keeles

1976. aasta juunis peeti Tartus poistekooride laulupidu ning külalisi tuli Lätist, Valgevenest, Ukrainast ja Leedust. Tõnu Sokk võttis nad vastu Tartu raudteejaamas rongide saabudes ja läks seejärel kaasa proovidesse. Sõna saavad peo juhid, Läti peadirigent, Minski poistekoori dirigent ja Leedu poisid ning ühendkooride proovist on lindile jäänud näiteks Lüdigi „Koit“ ja poisteklubi laul.
