The Metaart Foundation presents its project “The Sound of the Far East”. Visitors will be able to get acquainted with unknown Mongolia through the sight of a Bulgarian traveler and through the musical tales of Violons Barbares – one of the most famous ethnic groups in Europe. The trio (Violons Barbares) is arriving in Bulgaria for the first time and will perform a masterful music class and then perform a full concert. With the help of music, stories, and photography, we will be able to dive into the Mongolian steppe and the soul of a harsh and resilient people.
The project is part of the programme of Plovdiv – European Capital of Culture 2019 / Plovdiv 2019 ECOC
All program events are free!
