The Bulgarian Roses

Our first concert, “Roses of Bulgaria,” was held on May 13, 2023 at the Inlet Theatre in Port Moody. The concert was a celebration of Bulgarian folklore dances and traditions.

It is not by chance that Bulgarian folk dances have survived throughout the centuries. They carry the energy and spirit of the Bulgarian everywhere in the world. They help him to always survive and to succeed under any circumstances.

We thank all the wonderful participants and guests of the “ROSES OF BULGARIA” concert. It was truly an incredible experience. All the ensembles showed a great variety of dances and costumes, and the orchestra, “Friends,” with musicians from Chicago, Seattle, and Vancouver made our celebration unforgettable.
