About Nusha Choir

Nusha Choir was founded in late 2013 by Neli Andreeva, famous singer and lead soprano of the Bulgarian National Ensemble “Philip Koutev”. Since then, her mission has been to give young women with passion for singing the chance to learn, grow musically and perform; to preserve and continue Bulgarian singing traditions, and to create space for new musical explorations.

The choir works closely with composers Georgi Andreev and Nikolay Peev, who compose and arrange music specifically for Nusha. Thanks to these collaborations, Nusha has produced two albums, Kriva Koza (2015) and Da znaesh, maicho (2020), reflecting both traditional and contemporary renditions of traditional Bulgarian songs.

Nusha holds many grand prizes from national and international competitions. The choir regularly tours around Europe, and has had the unique opportunity to also perform as far as Japan.

In 2023 Nusha recorded several arrangements of their songs with a symphony orchestra which are due to be released later this year as part of the choir’s 10th anniversary celebrations.
