The Megdanski Leventi duo, featuring Aleksander Andonov from Nessebar, Bulgaria, and Georgi Dushev from Castelo de Rugat, Spain, is scheduled to present a piece titled “A Walk Through The Shopluka.” This performance will take place at the 11th edition of “Expats Join Hands in Worldwide Dance,” a traveling gathering taking place at BMW Park in Munich, Germany, from May 15 to 17. The two 16-year-old musicians, who are graduates of bagpipe teacher Petko Stoyanov in Nessebar, described their music as possessing a “bright character, lively rhythm and genuine folk spirit.” They stated that their friendship and shared passion for Bulgarian folk music formed the basis of the duo, noting that while they do not meet constantly, their online connection and holiday gatherings are highly valued. They added that their performance incorporates a touch of humor, hoping to entertain and surprise the audience.
The festival, “Expats Join Hands in Worldwide Dance,” is organized for amateur folklore ensembles performing outside of Bulgaria. The initiative was established by the Ot Izvora group in Lyon, France, which hosted both the inaugural event in 2015 and the tenth edition in 2025. Organizers anticipate over 100 dance ensembles and more than 4,000 attendees for the 11th Munich event in May.
The Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) is serving as the official media partner for the event and will feature all participants.
