In numbers
Repertoire
The numbers on this page are not a biography - they are computed from every documented programme, every work, every date. The heart of the symphonic repertoire is Slavic and Bulgarian music - Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich and Rachmaninoff alongside Vladigerov, Veselin Stoyanov and Dvořák. On the operatic side it is Verdi and, above all, Puccini - the composer who first turned his attention to opera.
