Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares is a Grammy award-winning ensemble of a rare artistic gift and enormous popular appeal. Created fifty years ago, its goal was to enrich the heritage of the Bulgarian solo folk song with harmonies and arrangements that highlighted its beautiful timbres and irregular rhythms. These mystic voices of 22 women and 2 men have managed countless times to dissolve the separation between East and West, of young and old, of pop music and classical tunes.
“The choir and its arrangements are consistently, continually astonishing.” (The New York Times)
“Their centuries-old vocal technique has been thrillingly preserved; a kind of passionate belting, perfectly in tune, that cuts straight to the heart of the enraptured listener.” (New York Post)
