LW> Very Nice CD - The singing is a bit modernish, and the instrumentals could be more energetically played, but all in all a pretty good CD. Dances from this region presented by their Choreographer (Valentin Kenov) at Bulgarian Folk Seminar Plovdiv 2007 |

LW> Wonderful music. That by itself is usually enough. But what make this special is that essentially all the musicians are BLIND, they all live in Varna, and the Director of the group, Nikolay Doktovov, is about the only sighted person.;; |
