Beyond 100 Lands - Vyara Pantaleeva takes us on a journey to ourselves

Photo: Personal archive

Singer Vyara Pantaleeva welcomes spring and the coming summer with a new song. Beyond 100 Lands is a dreamy fairy tale about the personal journey that each of us takes sooner or later. The mystical is musically hinted at with a light oriental motif, reminiscent of the tales from the Arabian Nights. The lyrics also refer to classic fairy tales - two moons symbolise two lunar months, and the story takes us deep into the woods and into a world of mirrors. Of the idea, Vyara adds:

"The message is that you have to go beyond 100 lands to find yourself and/or some truth about yourself, about life, about your feelings. And in the end, when you search, you find, above all, love within yourself, which is perhaps the best thing that can happen to a person".

Again, the lyrics, music and arrangements are by Chavdar Tsolov - Vyara's husband, with whom she has worked for years. He is the author of her songs, as well as the children's songs for the Mickey Mouse Vocal Group, which Vyara founded and has led for over ten years.


The singer admits that family is a huge source of inspiration for her and Chavdar - they both love to be in a state of creativity. Their young daughter, Raya, is the catalyst for the enchanting sound of their new song, as well as the reason they wrote their first music book, recently released, Raya and the Bugs. 

The book also features the children of the Mickey Mouse vocal group, who recorded 14 songs, also written by Chavdar Tsolov. 

He confirms that Raya is definitely the spur and inspiration for much of what they do - not only for the Mickey Mouse group, but also for Vyara herself as an artist who needs to express herself through music.

Before we listen to the song Beyond 100 Lands, here is Vyara Pantaleeva's message to each of us: 

"I wish the listeners to be cheerful in life, to be more tolerant, to smile, to have a nice and happy summer. And to find the bright side in themselves!"
