le mystere de voix bulgares, kelvingrove art gallery and museum, glasgow

It's hard to imagine a better setting (all right, Bulgarian hilltop barn aside) for this extraordinary choir.

Founded in the early 1950s, discovered by the record industry in the mid-70s, touring world-music circuits since the late 80s, these 22 women and two plucky men produce a resonance every bit as awesome as Kelvingrove's great echoey vaults. Under the fierce precision of conductor Dora Hristova the singers have their routine down pat, reconfiguring between numbers like a team of elaborately costumed synchronised swimmers.
