Christmas concert-vernissage of the BNR's Children's Choir and Folk Orchestra

The Bulgarian National Radio Children’s Choir will conclude the celebrations of its 65th anniversary with the concert “Pictures from a Christmas.”

On December 17 at 7:00 PM in Hall 3 of the National Palace of Culture, the young singers will present a concert-vernissage in which they will “paint” Christmas cards from around the world with their voices.

The festive program will take the audience through the colors, rhythms, and traditions of Europe, America, and Africa, culminating in a depiction of Bulgaria’s Christmas caroling traditions.

Joining the Bulgarian National Radio Children’s Radio Choir, under chief conductor Venetsia Karamanova and conductor Mihaela Koteva, will be the virtuoso musicians of the Bulgarian National Radio Folk Orchestra, conducted by Dimitar Hristov. Together, the ensembles will present a special Christmas gift to the audience – the “Christmas Suite” composed by maestro Dimitar Hristov, based on five old Bulgarian Christmas carols.

Special guest at the concert will be the singer Desi Dobreva.

The concert is part of the program of the New Year's Music Festival at the National Palace of Culture
