 (4’)     Pancho Vladigerov
Mouvement rhythmique, Op.37, No.6

Vladigerov is arguably the most influential Bulgarian composer of all time. He was one of the first to successfully combine idioms of Bulgarian folk music and the Western European art music tradition. Ratchenitza is a traditional Bulgarian folk dance in 7/8 or 7/16. Mouvement rhythmique is based on 9/8 rhythm (3/4+3/8), like the Bulgarian folk dance, the “Daichovo horo.”         Tania Stavreva
