This is my first Symphony. It is Written 2013-2014. This is my master degree  composition.

This piece of work reflects my understanding that music should have a firm, clear structure and form. This is crucial for me if the one wants to push to the edges of utmost complexity. The transparent structure helps to gently lead  the listener's attention through the space and the narrative of the piece.


Symphony

This is the first movement of my symphony. 
It has an opening character for the piece. It presents the instruments, the sections and the sound in general of the modern orchestra, witch I have used. It also presents the different textures, techniques, dynamic approach to be used and developed further.

Symphony Part I - Prelude

This is the second movement of my symphony. 
I use "scherzo" for its name in order to indicate the musical form of this part. Despite that it has some humorist and playful traits as far as intonations and textures, its general character is dramatic, unsettle and restless. 

Symphony Part II - Scherzo

This is the slow movement of my symphony. Its free form develops starting from a pure solo flute melody, reaches a mighty culmination in tutti and goes back to a single quiet tone.

Symphony Part III - Adagio

This is the fourth movement of my symphony. It is in the form of sonata allegro, with intonations, rhythms and the temperament of the great Irish dance

Symphony Part IV - Gigue

This is my a cappella version of one of the most beautiful jazz ballads - Prelude to a kiss, by Duke Ellington. 
On this record I perform it with my  "Euphonia" Vocal Quintet.

Enjoy!

Prelude to a kiss

This is my musical vision of a shamanic trance ritual for invoking rain.

Enchantment For Rain

This is the first song I wrote for my vocal group Euphonia. The melody has some flavor of the broad rubato Bulgarian folk songs. The lyrics (folkloric) mean: 
"- My love, my lovely bird, you have set up a fire on my heart. Can you put it out? 
- I can, yоung man - over there is s cold water which puts it out from men's hearts. 
- Beautiful maiden, the heart can not be cooled down with water, but only with your black eyes and beautiful face. My love, my lovely bird, my love... "

Sevditse (My love)
