The event will take place on December 23 in Sofia Live Club and includes popular Christmas songs, jazz standards and evergreen songs to the rendition of vocalists Militsa Gladnishka and Pavel Terziyski.

We know Militsa as an actress and singer who conquers every music and theatre stage with her stunning presence. She skillfully mixes different genres and is proficient in acting, opera and jazz singing. She takes part in a number of projects of Bulgaria’s best musicians thanks to her virtuoso improvisations and good sense of humor.
