Today marks the 88th anniversary of the birth of remarkable Bulgaria folk singer Nadka Karadzhova. Born on March 14, 1937 in the then Pazardzhik village of Trivoditsi (today - Plovdiv region), she is a descendant of an old musical family. At the age of 15, at an amateur art festival in Plovdiv, Nadka Karadzhova was noticed by the composer Philip Koutev. And in 1953, at only 16 years of age, she became part of the legendary State Folk Song and Dance Ensemble, of which Koutev was the conductor.
