The London Bulgarian Choir
Bulgarians are born and die with music. There seems to
be a special song - of joy, praise, lament - for every
moment of a person's existence, turning life into a sacred
ritual of sound and blessing. The richer and fuller the
sound, the greater the vibration, the more powerful the
blessing.
The London Bulgarian Choir takes you on a journey through
those landscapes of ritual and voice, bringing the unique
Bulgarian sounds, fiery rhythms and unusual harmonies
to British audiences. Created in 2000 by Dessislava Stefanova,
the Choir has members from all over the world united by
their passion for Bulgarian singing.
"Led by the dazzling Dessislava Stefanova, this
disciplined group deliver songs of love, war, hunting
and seasonal cheer to stunning effect… I can say
without fear of contradiction that if this group had put
their hat in the ring (for the Radio 3 World Music Awards)
they would have won outright." Michael Church,
The Independent
