Тодор Попов

Todor Popov is the poet among Bulgarian composers, strongly influenced by Bulgarian national folklore. He is a master of choral music, well known to generations of Bulgarians with his popular songs. Often called "Bulgarian Brahms", he is among the most beloved Bulgarian authors. His work ranges from popular music such as "Play, Accordion" to symphonies that reflect his constant search for the perfect melodic expression. The voice is the most important instrument in the work of Todor Popov and it is no coincidence that he is among the main authors who worked with the internationally recognized choir ‘Bodra smyana’. But the truth is that there is no Bulgarian choir that has not included in its repertoire songs by Todor Popov, because his music is close to the perfect combination of lyrical text and sound.
