LW> Nice tunes, but nothing really outstanding here. I think these are tunes from a greater area than Veliko Turnovo, and given the conductor and musicians, I'm not surprised.;;To me this doesn't sound particularly North Bulgarian. |

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.;; |
