Bulgaria Today – December 24, 2021

Dear friends, welcome to Bulgaria Today on December 24!  

We are pleased to bring you our festive podcast edition on Christmas Eve. We begin by revisiting the deep meanings of Christmas Eve in Bulgarian folk tradition regarded as a special moment of transition from chaos to cosmos, from darkness to light and from an end to a new beginning. Join us as we reveal some of the long-standing traditions still alive in Bulgaria for that special day.

Next on the show, we explore the connection between science and faith as we bring you an interview with two Bulgarian scientists – a mathematician and a physicist. Are faith in God and science two contradictory or complementary worldviews? 

The second part of the show is, of course, dedicated to music as we bring you a selection of Bulgarian folk songs about the Nativity of Christ and Christmas. 

Enjoy Christmas Eve on Radio Bulgaria!
