Every year in March the Children's Choir of the Bulgarian National Radio celebrates its birthday. For the first rehearsal maestro Hristo Nedyalkov symbolically chooses March 22 - the first day of spring. On this date for decades former and current choristers gather at the Bulgarian National Radio to celebrate the birthday of the emblematic group. 

The Spring Concert of the Children’s choir is also traditional, which in 2022 will take place on March 18 in Bulgaria hall at 7.30. The duo Antonia Mircheva (flute) and Nikolay Stoev (piano) will be on the stage together with the world-famous choir, as well as Valentina Milusheva, singer from the National Folklore Ensemble "Philip Koutev" and a percussion trio from the National Music School with artistic director Dilyana Shopova. Venezia Karamanova, who has been the main conductor of the choir for the last nine years, will share her role with Mihaela Koteva, and the piano accompaniment will be entrusted to Siana Atanasova and Teodora Zaneva. 

The programme includes songs and excerpts from works by Giuseppe Verdi, Piotr I. Tchaikovsky, Gaetano Donizetti, Giacomo Puccini and Otar Taktakishvili. Songs of the founder of the group Nedyalkov will be heard, as well as of the Bulgarian composers Georgi Dimitrov, Nikolay Kaufman, Jules Levy, Alexander Tanev and others.
