Concert | Stories from Ancient Bulgaria


7 Stories Up presents Yasna Voices, a group of Bulgarian a cappella singers whose performance reveals the disarming power and intimacy of the unaccompanied voice. Yasna Voices will present a unique performance in which audiences will be immersed in the earthy resonance of the ensemble's ancient singing style, and invited to participate in the sound-making as well.  Yasna Voices is an expansive group of singers, sharing a passion for ensemble harmony, folk traditions, and experimentation. Weaving together traditional Bulgarian village-style songs with artfully arranged a cappella pieces, original compositions, inspired by and written for Yasna Voices, and spontaneous group improvisation, the ensemble reveals the disarming power and intimacy of the unaccompanied voice. Their interpretations of ancient songs tell timeless tales of sweet or forbidden love, horses and wild mountains, potent wine, pepper planting, the secrets of the moon, and the sun’s falling in love with a beautiful girl and her song.
