Petar Ralchev, accordionist, was born in 1961 and has become one of the brightest stars on the Bulgarian music scene. Having inherited a wealth of tunes and rhythms from the folk tradition, he has taken them into new realms and to new heights. His deep understanding of this tradition, combined with rigorous classical training at the National School of Music Art in Plovdiv, is the basis for his incredible artistic development. His impressive concerts have become an inspiration for many young accordionists around the world today.
