We had a fabulous time dancing to live music by the renowned Bulgarian ensemble Bulgarika at our folk dance party on October 21!
Nikolay Kolev on gadulka, Donka Koleva on vocals, Temelko Ivanos on naval, Nikolay Kodzhabashev on tambura, and Marin Shalamov on tapan played a wide range of favorites including Dospatsko Horo, Sedi Donka, Katerino Mome, and Triti Puti as well as great renditions of Pravo, Devetorka, and Les Noto.
Our youngest dancer, the grandson of the well-known and beloved singer Tsvetanka Varimezova (along with his mother Radke), joined us.
Our next Holiday Folk Dance Party on Monday, December 9, 7-9:30 p.m., will feature Orchestra Euphonos playing Romanian, Balkan, and Israeli music.
