The Plovdiv Singing Society "Angel Bukoreschliev" will celebrate the International Day of Ethnic Tolerance with a concert on the square next to the Dzhumaya Mosque. Plovdiv citizens will have the opportunity to hear songs representing the folklore of different ethnic groups. The event will take place on 26.11.2022 (Saturday) at 11:00.

The Plovdiv Singing Society "Angel Bukoreschliev" was formed back in 1895 in the house of Nikola Popov, where 18 enthusiastic music lovers gathered and decided to create a choir. The conductor was invited to be Angel Bukoreschliev, a singing teacher at the Plovdiv Male High School. A few months later, on March 4, 1896, a founding meeting was held, at which the amateur male choir was renamed the Plovdiv Singing Society.

Article 1 of its Statute states: "The Singing Society is established to develop and spread Bulgarian and Slavic singing and art music in general".

The concert programme will also feature the Chamber Singing Formation "Sunny Voices", conducted by Ilian Tiganev. For the fourth time this year, "Sunny Voices" will delight Plovdiv residents and guests with a free concert. The repertoire of the ensemble includes Bulgarian songs by famous composers. The concert will feature young talents - Maria Khubenova and Daria Taneva.

Sunny Voices was founded 4 years ago. The ensemble is chamber, the choristers sing for pleasure and from the heart. They have performed a number of charity concerts. The group made its debut with a concert at the Roman Stadium as part of the Youth Symphony Orchestra "Progressive" project - part of the International Festival "Days of Music at Balabanov House" in 2019. She was awarded a bronze medal at the international festival with a competitive character "Crossroads of the Muses", Sofia 2020.
