Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to discuss the tradition of Bulgarian folk music based on three significant folk-inflected compositions by Pancho Vladigerov, and thereby to contribute to the literature on Vladigerov's compositional style and influences. For this purpose, I have chosen three of his most popular and frequently performed compositions which are also representative of the stylistic trends in his music. They are: Bulgarian Rhapsody (op.16, 1922) for Violin and Piano, Song from Bulgarian Suite (op.21, 1927) for Violin and Piano and Shumen Miniatures (op. 29, 1934) for Solo Piano.
