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.

Pavel Terziyki is a multifaceted artist who is known for his innovative vocal experiments. He is an author of three solo albums and a co-author in several joint projects. Pavel also writes theatre and film music and collaborates with some of Bulgaria’s most celebrated jazz musicians. Irrespective of the weather outside, the Bulgarian National Radio Big Band and the two artists are promising a “White Christmas” and festive mood.

 Next, we bring you the song “Blue” to the rendition of Militsa Gladnishka and the Bulgarian National Radio Big Band. This is one of the most popular songs of composer Ivan Staykov. It was created in the early 1960’s. Boris Aprilov wrote the lyrics of the piece.
