The Bulgarian Voices Angelite

About

The Bulgarian Voices Angelite is a Sofia-based women's choir rooted in the Bulgarian polyphonic tradition, tracing its lineage to the State Television Choir founded in 1952. Reconstituted as a private ensemble after the fall of communism, the roughly 20-voice group broke internationally with a 1987 cathedral concert in Bremen and has since performed at the Nobel Prize ceremony in Oslo, on Red Square in Moscow, and at the Vatican. The choir holds multiple Grammy nominations and has collaborated with Huun-Huur-Tu, the Moscow Art Trio, and Bobby McFerrin, releasing over 13 albums on the German label Jaro.
