The dance tells - a book by Assoc. Prof. Petar Grigorov
We thought that our choreographers were not very "written" people, but Grigorov refuted us with his book, which is, on the one hand, an emotional confession of the great artist, and on the other - the story of a culture that has no equal. you are at least on the territory of the Balkans!
Undoubtedly, he is not only an exceptional choreographer-practitioner, but also an in-depth connoisseur of folklore styles from every corner of Bulgaria, an indispensable pedagogue who started his career at Southwestern University - Blagoevgrad, and today a beloved and respected associate professor of choreography at Varna Free University "Chernorizets Hrabar ”.
I would call Assoc. Prof. Grigorov's book "A Short Encyclopedia of Bulgarian Folklore Choreography". With his characteristic clear and precise thought, with his subtle Shoppe humor, he describes his first steps in art, joys and disappointments, troubles and successes.
In his biography he weaves the whole movement of Bulgarian choreographic art over a period of more than four decades, his meetings with the first giants of this purely Bulgarian stage performance of folk dances, the search for and achievement of the right path.
