The Aramis orchestra of the Mannheim international cultural centre in Germany gave a concert on Todorka peak in Mount Pirin. An open-air snow stage was set up at an altitude of 2,550 m. for the purpose, and a grand piano was taken up the mountain, pirinnews.com writes.
The concert was kept secret until the very last moment so as to be a surprise for the tourists in the area.
