 AMG EXPERT REVIEW And the artists here are certainly of this ilk, using their considerable talents not only to perform what is recognizably Bulgarian folk music, but also to get into styles of music that, although pleasantly evocative of folk, blues, and acoustic jazz, don't really fit neatly into any one slot. The listener looking for an easy-to-categorize CD subject may also get confused by this recording, as the music featured on the first few tracks hardly gives an indication of the areas the group will be getting into by the end of day's business. A CD that is fine not only for what it includes, but for supplying intriguing hints into future possibilities.

A note material with a demo CD, containing studio recorded music. 16 traditional folk songs colected by D. Dimcheva and arranged by V. Dimchev for small and bigger groups are included in the book. Some of them are for choir, choir with instruments. Of corse there are some songs which sound great in their old, traditional shape. And all this, notated and printed with a brilliant, professional software.

12 compositions written by Desislava Dimcheva and Valeri Dimchev are included in "I see a light". How deep can be the folklore music and its contemporary understanding from musicians with open mind and real professional reading of traditional culture. The cover and the art work is by Atanas Daffinov.

"The tamboura" was the begining for the Acoustic trio. This music was many times on Bulgarian National Radio and TV. It was many times a part of jazz, folk festivals in Bulgaria and around Europe. Recorded with a extraordinary percussionist - Drago Dimov, this music is still in the focus of the time.
