Bulgarian conductor Delyana Lazarova performed brilliantly on the final night of the NRTA Conducting Competition in Tirana, Albania. On March 8, she faced the other two finalists – South Korea's Andrew Joon Choi and China's Ji Yujue. The three were conducting the Albanian Radio and Television Symphony Orchestra that performed 2 works, as one of which was work of Albanian maestro Nikolla Zoraqi in whose memory the event took place. With her first place, the Bulgarian conductor deserved the opportunity to conduct concerts of the Symphony Orchestra of Albanian Radio and Television next season, as well as concerts of the Hungarian National Television Symphony Orchestra in Budapest and "I Solisti Aquilani" in Italy.
