The Megdanski Leventi, a duo featuring Aleksander Andonov from Nessebar, Bulgaria, and Georgi Dushev from Castelo de Rugat, Spain, will present a performance at the 11th edition of “Expats Join Hands in Worldwide Dance.” This traveling gathering will take place from May 15 to 17 at the BMW Park in Munich, Germany. The 16-year-old musicians described their piece, titled “A Walk Through The Shopluka,” as possessing a bright character, lively rhythm, and authentic folk spirit. The leventi noted that their collaboration was founded on their friendship and shared passion for Bulgarian folk music, despite not always being physically together, with online interaction and holiday gatherings being particularly valued.
They added that their performance incorporates an element of humor, hoping to entertain and surprise the audience. “Expats Join Hands in Worldwide Dance” is an event organized for amateur folklore ensembles performing outside of Bulgaria. The initiative was established by the Ot Izvora group in Lyon, France, which hosted the first edition in 2015 and the tenth edition in 2025.
Organizers anticipate a significant turnout for the Munich event, expecting over 100 dance ensembles and more than 4,000 guests. The Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) serves as the official media partner for the event and will feature all participating groups.
