Among the greenery of Sofia's South Park 2 today the project "Milcho Leviev Forever" will be presented. The project features musicians Anthony Donchev Quartet, David Lynch (USA) and Human Touch (Greece), along with Vicky Almazidou and Theodosii Spassov. They will present emblematic works by Bartok, Chopin, Pancho Vladigerov, Ravel, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff in the style of legendary Bulgarian jazz pianist and composer Milcho Leviev, who passed away in 2019. These works are collected in the album "Sonata 57", released posthumously in 2021.

The event is part of the popular summer music festival A to JazZ, which takes place from 9 to 11 July in Sofia.
