site.btaFolk Ensembles from Bulgarian-Populated Village of Kulevcha to Take Part in Concert on Bessarabian Bulgarians Day
Bulgarian folk dance and song groups Kulevchanka and Bulgarian Hearts from the Bulgarian-populated village of Kulevcha in Ukraine will participate in the celebrations in Odesa on the occasion of Bessarabian Bulgarians Day, October 29, organized by the Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) and the Consulate General of the Republic of Bulgaria in Odesa. The two ensembles will perform in a concert alongside Bulgarian folk singer Desislava Dobreva and other two Bulgarian folk dance groups from the town of Bolgrad and the village of Kamchik in the Odesa region, Ukraine.
The concert will take place on a stage provided by the Odesa City Hall in the city’s central park, opposite to the BTA National Press Club, which BTA Director General Kiril Valchev and Bulgarian Consul General in Odesa Svetoslav Ivanov arranged at a meeting with Odesa Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov in June.
The concert will take place three days before the Bessarabian Bulgarians Day, on October 26 - the day on which in 1838 the Bolgrad Cathedral "Holy Transfiguration of the Lord" was consecrated. The temple was built with funds of Bessarabian Bulgarians who migrated from Bulgaria in the XVIII - XIX centuries.
On the occasion of Bessarabian Bulgarians Day, a meeting between Valchev, Ivanov and representatives of Bulgarians from different settlements in the Odesa region will be held before the October 26 concert.
