The Varna Summer International Music Festival’s most important message is to connect young people with the classical tradition that has shaped European civilization over the past five centuries, the festival’s artistic director Mario Hossen said at the presentation of the October issue of LIK magazine dedicated to the festival. The event was held at the BTA National Press Club in Varna on Wednesday.
“We have a responsibility to introduce young people to the world’s cultural heritage,” Hossen emphasized and praised BTA for its support. He said the festival had marked its centenary with landmark events unprecedented in Bulgaria’s festival history. Leading orchestras and musicians who perform in London, Vienna, Brussels, Paris and Salzburg took to the Varna stage, helping establish the city as a venue for world-class musical productions.
“Music has been the Balkans’ strongest voice since the time of Orpheus,” Hossen noted, describing it as part of the region’s cultural DNA and citing the festival as proof of its enduring musical heritage.
The LIK magazine has been freely accessible since January 2024. All issues published since the magazine’s relaunch in 2022, including the October issue, are available for download from BTA’s website.
