Founded in 1902, Berkovitsa Brass Band is one of the oldest orchestras in Bulgaria. The band’s rich music repertoire includes overtures, marches, waltzes, polkas, mazurkas, arrangements of classical music and folklore. Berkovitsa Brass Band is a major participant in Lili Ivanova's music hit "Winds", as well as in numerous joint performances with other popular artists.

The piece “Neka Se Veselim/ Let’s Make Merry” is part of the band’s music repertoire. The title is about the most important thing for the musicians - continuous, Balkan-style fun.
