Part of the New European Music project, tonight’s concert at 7 PM at the BNR’s Studio No. 1 will present original music by composer, guitarist and music arranger Vladimir Nikolov from North Macedonia, who will this time be guest conductor. The concert will feature, as soloists, drummer Srdjan Ivanovic from Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as the Bulgarian musicians Mihail Ivanov, bass guitar and Antoni Donchev, piano.

Vladimir Nikolov, Srdjan Ivanovic and Mihail Ivanov have been working together sicne 2002 when they met at the conservatory in Amsterdam. The three continued to play together with the Nikolov-Ivanovic Undectet, founded in 2017 by Vladimir Nikolov and Srdjan Ivanovic. Now, audiences in Bulgaria will be able to hear the music they make, live.
