The Seventh Edition of the Off the Beaten Path Chamber Music Festival offers new adventures in several picturesque towns and villages of Bulgaria. In addition to Gotse Delchev and Kovachevitsa, this summer we invite you to attend concerts in another two beautiful community centers – in the town of Dobrinishte and the village of Karpachevo. We will present the Bulgarian premieres of three chamber works by composers Kenji Bunch (USA), Valentin Silvestrov (Ukraine), and Henri Lazarof (Bulgaria/USA), and you will have another chance to hear recently created works by Bulgarian composers Dobrinka Tabakova and Peter Kerkelov. Guest musicians Monica Ohuchi, piano (USA), Stefan Arzberger, violin (Germany), and Karin Dornbusch, clarinet (Sweden/Switzerland) will be joining us in presenting specially selected programs from the classical chamber repertoire.
