Concert Hall in Central Military Club
Sofia, 7 Tzar Osvoboditel Blvd.
The festive Pillow Concert this year will gather little and grown-up admirers of Andersen’s stories for a musical journey to the magical world of the fairytale characters. The Russian composer Boris Tchaikovsky’s music will be performed for the first time in Bulgaria. He composed a number of suites inspired by the Andersen’s fantastic works about charming princes, spoiled princesses, bewitched kings and imaginary lands. A real small orchestra will take up the stage, lead by our favourite conductor – Maestro Zhorzh Dimitrov.
Concert is organized under the patronage of Mr. Nikolay Nenchev, Minister of Defence of Republic of Bulgaria.. With the kind permision of Boris Tchaikovsky’s Society – www.boris-tchaikovsky.com
As opposed to most pillow concerts, we highly recommend preliminary purchase of tickets which can be HERE. This will speed up the entrance process and will also provide you with a discount. However, the traditional reservations are still available. As usual, the Pillow Workshop will be held one hour before each concert and is free of charge for all ticket holders.
