Description

In the festive edition of Bulgaria Today on Friday, September 22, Independence Day, we will hear why this date is inscribed in golden letters in Bulgarian history as one of the most important national holidays of Bulgaria.

Next on the show, we will delve into history to learn what series of events, complex political moves and even haggling led to the birth of the Third Bulgarian Kingdom on the brink of the First World War.

In our "Song of the Day" section we will hear one of the most beautiful and popular Bulgarian folk songs - "Izlel ye Delyo Haydutin", but in a very rare performance - that of Nadezhda Hvoineva.

Stay tuned!
