Unpublished works by the famous jazz pianist and composer Milcho Leviev, who passed away three years ago, will be presented to the audience at a concert part of the "Chamber Stage Plovdiv" platform. The event will feature famous performers from Bulgaria and Greece - the country where Milcho Leviev lived in his last years. The presence of Antoni Donchev - piano, and Lakis Tzimkas - double bass is notable.

The initiative for the concert comes from the guest from Greece, who has kept inspiration and memories from his meetings with Milcho Leviev in the city of Thessaloniki. He dedicated part of his work, collected in the album "Conversation from the Past", especially to the Bulgarian jazz musician. It contains works for double bass and piano, many of which correspond to the work of Milcho Leviev.

The works will be performed for the first time in front of a Bulgarian audience on October 23 in one of the new cultural spaces of Plovdiv - Culture Hotspot Milcho Leviev or "Ivan Chernozemski" House in the Old Town.

Let's recall about the world-famous jazz musician, composer, arranger and pianist Milcho Leviev with one of his interviews for Radio Bulgaria from October 2014:
