"A champion of children's choirs around the world" and "An amazing world-class choir" - these are but a few of the superlatives in the world press after the numerous tours of the BNR Children's Choir, founded in 1960.
A reputation as a top-notch choir always precedes its busy concert schedule, which has earned it dozens of awards and an endless list of tours around the world. Academician Hristo Nedyalkov was the choir's founder and its principal conductor from 1960 until his death in 2013. After him, the chief conductor has been Venetsia Karamanova.
