Concentus Moraviae 2022 I The Mystery of the Bulgarian Voices

The Mystery of the Bulgarian Voices
Dora Hristova / choirmaster

Program:
traditional bulgarian folk songs

If you want to know for yourself what the "secret of the Bulgarian voices" is, you have to go to a concert of the legendary women's choir of the same name in Kurim. Is his mystery in the use of parallel fifths, which are taboo in classical European music, or are the listeners enchanted by the traditional vocal technique that creates a magical, multi-layered spherical coloration? Either way, next year the choir will celebrate 70 years of successful worldwide careers crowned with the prestigious Grammy Award for Best Folk Record, and our festival is pleased to be one of the congratulators.
