The Music of Europe 2 features the music of European countries that are not members of the EU. It is a series of 16 concerts which will present Russian, Norwegian, Icelandic, Kosovan, Macedonian and other countries’ music masterpieces.
Traditionally, March 3 is dedicated to Bulgarian composers and performers. This year again the concerts will be held on Mondays in Bulgaria Chamber Hall. The
soloists will be once again well-known Bulgarian musicians, performers who are still developing their potential and soloists from Europe, who have already proven themselves
