Bistra Ivanova
The festival was amazing event in the summer cuture program and I had the luck to visit it.
Thracian history, religion, mindset, culture, clothing, rites and rituals, as well as their continuity in Bulgarian folklore, were presented in a coherent, thorough and convincing way.
The culmination of the festival was the Thracian Mystery Drama. The music and choreography have no precedent in contemporary Bulgarian culture and art. The author’s interpretation of the ancient Thracian musical modes is so skillful that it makes you bristle, touching the vast and you have the feeling that you really sense something very, very ancient!
