The Bulgarian National Radio celebrates its 88th anniversary and the video to the song "Our Radio" invites the audience to the "Old House". The song was created and recorded in the iconic Studio 1 of BNR back in 2014 by an all-star team, in honor of the 80th anniversary of the public media.

The music was composed by Stefan Dimitrov, then head of the national program for culture and education "Hristo Botev.” The lyrics are work of the poets Ivan Tenev and Alexander Petrov and the arrangement of the song was done by Plamen Velinov.


Among the performers, we recognize some of the most popular and beloved singers who perform together with the BNR Children Choir - a symbol of continuity in the national radio.

Happy anniversary to all those who make the radio and those who listen to it!
