Тhe concert as a form of presenting Bulgarian dance art on the basis of folklore

The challenges facing the performing folk art today are different, but perhaps the biggest among them is the form of its presentation. Bulgarian folk dance has always enjoyed great interest. Over the years, the audience demand has been constantly growing, which necessitates the need to focus on the quality of its performance in response to the spiritual and cultural needs of the audience. The object of this research is the concert as a form of presenting Bulgarian dance art on the basis of folklore. The purpose of the submitted work is to analyse the specific features of the concert as a form of presenting Bulgarian dance art on the basis of folklore; to highlight the leading role of the director in the whole course; from the ideological conception to the realisation of the art programme. This purpose also includes the tasks related to its realisation, to be precise, the interpretation of a concert and performance as a subject of the director's strategy; following the process of scenario creating and showing up the special features of the performance, introducing the stage folklore art; the special role of the director regarding the complete art product- from the beginning to the end. The topic leads to a wide analysis, which is not possible to be presented in one report. That is why, the expression of the whole idea is limited and analysing only the concerts, the contents of the music and dance on the basis of the Bulgarian folklore.
