Embark on a unique choir tour through Bulgaria, a country celebrated for its profound musical heritage. This journey offers an unparalleled opportunity to delve into Bulgaria’s exquisite traditions of singing and music, enriched by the country’s folklore, breathtaking natural landscapes, local wines, and vibrant dancing. As we traverse the scenic mountainous regions, staying in authentic village guesthouses, you’ll experience the true essence of Bulgaria, capturing its beauty before it transforms with time.

Each day brings a new encounter with local singing groups, showcasing a spectrum of styles and compositions. You’ll be immersed in the authentic Bulgarian singing tradition, including performances by village grandmothers who master the “Bulgarian voice” technique—a unique throat singing tradition you’ll have the chance to learn. The tour features a diverse lineup, from female and male ensembles to polyphonic singing from Macedonia and the distinctive rhythms native to the Sofia area.

This tour’s distinction lies in its curation by three renowned experts: Uri Hartman, a veteran producer of the Israeli Opera; Asen Marinov, a leading Bulgarian guitarist and the frontman of a celebrated world music group; and Zeev Ben-Arie, a Balkans and world cultures specialist with a Ph.D. This experience is tailored for choirs looking to explore together, immerse in local musical traditions, and participate in cultural and musical events, including local festivals when possible.

Accompanied throughout by a local musician, this flexible itinerary ensures a personalized and enriching experience, adaptable to the specific interests and needs of your group.
