  Accordion School "FUTURE"

Pavel Dimitrov Dimitrov

Born on September 4, 1998 in Varna. Lives in Aksakovo, where he studied from first to third grade. In the fall of 2008, he was accepted into the National School of Arts "Dobri Hristov" - Varna, in the accordion class of Veselin Ivanov. He graduated in 2017.

In the summer of 2017, he went to Glasgow, Scotland, and in November of the same year successfully passed the entrance exams at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, but for health and family reasons in 2018 he returned to Bulgaria.

He is currently a student at the University of Shumen "Bishop Konstantin Preslavski", majoring in "Pedagogy of Music Education".

Already in kindergarten, he expressed a desire to play the accordion. From the age of three, he picked up the child's toy accordion, a gift from his grandfather, and successfully followed the rhythm of the bagpipe, listening with interest to how his father played. In October 2002, when he was barely 4 years old, he started his first accordion lessons with Ivan Nedelchev, who gave him a very stable foundation and after a very short time, Pavel started playing his first elementary melodies and songs. They played together for several years, after which, by coincidence, Pavel became a student of Yordan Kolarov, with whom he mainly consolidated the already achieved results. In 2008, he stopped private lessons and began his professional training at the art school in Varna. With ease and great desire he learns any new work, be it classical or from our folk folklore; makes timid attempts to compose.

During the years in which he was involved in music, Pavel took an active part in various concerts on a local and regional basis, he appeared in many competitions, from which he almost always returned with a prize.

Освен чудесен музикант, Павел е и изключителен танцьор. От 4 годишен посещава школата за народни танци при Танцов състав „Аксаково” с ръководител Г. КолевThe ensemble has many appearances on local and regional soil, participates in many concerts. Every year it takes an active part in the Easter competition "Easter Plucking" in the city of Varna, where it always performs more than successfully.

At the beginning of 2010 Pavel made his first recordings on a disc, in which children and young people took part - folk talents-instrumentalists from the city of Varna. The disc includes both individual instrumental performances and performances of mixed formations. Pavel performs solo "Svatbarska ruchenitsa" and "Akandzhii Nadigravane" - both works by the composer Dimitar Stoykov. The promotion of the disc takes place on 12.04.2010 in the concert studio of Radio Varna, where most of the participants play live. There, Pavel receives special congratulations personally from Dimitar Stoykov for his wonderful performance and his talent.

In mid-2010, Pavel joined the folklore singing group "Trakiyka" - Aksakovo at the "Prosveta" National Music Center, where he provided musical accompaniment to their songs. He accompanies the group in almost all of its participations in concerts and festivals at regional and national level. In April 2011, the singing group, together with its youngest member, participated in a live broadcast on the folklore radio "Mentsi". On May 7, 2011, the group "Trakiyka" and Pavel were invited to participate in the SKAT television program "From Bulgarian, More Bulgarian". There he participated with musical accompaniment to several songs and with an individual performance of the Pravo horo.

Since 2012, Pavel regularly participates as an accompanist for his classmates from the folk singing classes in a large number of the competitions he takes part in. At the age of 14, he successfully performed as an animator during the summer months for foreign tourists, entertaining them with performances from our native folklore as well as classical and popular music. And for lovers of traditional wedding celebrations, the young man has a rich repertoire, which he also successfully presented several times in the summer of 2013.

През месец юли 2013 г. е награден с безплатно посещение на майсторския клас по акордеон на проф. Мие Мики, която гостува на ММФ във Варна. At the end of the training, the participants in the master class performed a concert program in front of prominent figures of the Varna public. Pavel performed more than successfully, despite being the youngest participant and the only representative of Northeastern Bulgaria in this event. In December, he was selected as a soloist in the annual concert for the patronal holiday of the National Institute of Music "D. Hristov". Only the best students of the school, approved after a casting, participate in this concert and the young man was the only representative of his specialty.

In the summer of 2014, Pavel continued to work as an animator-musician; during this period, his first professional performances as a dancer began, where together with his colleagues from the "Kolevi" dance school, he performed folk dance programs for Bulgarian and foreign tourists.

During the year, Pavel also has many concert appearances on the occasion of national and municipal holidays, organized by the municipality of Aksakovo and the municipality of Varna with the dance group, as an accordion soloist and as part of a youth instrumental formation; he also participates as an accompanist and soloist on the “Rakovina” stage in the Sea Garden of Varna, where free concerts are held for the residents and guests of the city during the summer months. In 2014, the “Trakiyka” group, whose accompanist he has been since 2010, celebrated its 10th anniversary with a concert entitled “Trakiyka and Friends”, which was covered by the program “From Bulgarian, More Bulgarian” on TV SKAT. Pavel also takes part, of course, in the anniversary concert on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the city of Aksakovo.

In 2015, PG "Trakiya" again participated in the program "From Bulgarian, more Bulgarian" on TV SKAT together with its accompanist.

During the summer months of 2014, 2015 and 2016, the young man also performed as a dancer-animator together with his colleagues from the dance group "Contrast"., with whom they performed folklore performances for tourists visiting our Black Sea coast.

оркестър „ПЕНДАРА“

През  2014 г. формира свой оркестър. Преди да зазвучи като „Пендара“, оркестърът преминава през имената „Палитра“ и „Славей“. Промените отразяват както състава, който се обновява с времето, така и стремежа към автентична идентичност, която го отличава от останалите състави.

Павел ръководи и организира музикални изяви на фолклорен оркестър; participation in festivals and concerts at local and national level with the orchestra and as an individual performer, wedding programs, private celebrations. Repertoire – folk, classical, pop and jazz. During the summer months, Pavel also works as an animator in "Jeep Safari" in Golden Sands Club. In 2016, the orchestra was permanently active in the Ethnographic Complex "Kalimanski Khan", Kalimantsi village, region Varna. In 2019, he is a permanent performer in the tavern "Mamin Kolyo" in the city of Varna.

По време на престоя си в Глазгоу впечатлява българите в Шотландия при откриването на Millennium Club Bulgaria през ноември 2017 г..

At the beginning of 2018, he made his first professional recording at Radio Varna. This was his prize from the competition for young performers of classical and popular music "Musical Pearls" - 2017, which is organized by the University of Humanities and Arts "Konstantin Preslavski" - Varna. Radio Varna was a media partner of the event, and the winners of the first places won the opportunity to make a sound recording.

"The piece is called 'New Beginning' and it is in the spirit of the Thracian instrumental style, but more modern. I decided to name it like that because I'm just starting to compose, at least I'm trying, it's a new beginning for me."
