Los Angeles – Bulgarian Classical Concerts – Los Angeles (BgCC-LA) has announced its inaugural concert season, set to feature a series of unique classical chamber concerts commencing in late 2025 and early 2026. The organization aims to bridge cultural divides through inclusivity and artistic collaboration, showcasing not only Bulgarian classical repertoire but also beloved global masterpieces. Under the leadership of acclaimed musicians and board members, BgCC-LA is committed to enriching the classical music scene while also engaging the next generation of artists.
The inaugural concert season will kick off with four performances scheduled for:

The November 6 concert is particularly noteworthy, set to take place at Sephardic Temple Teferith Israel and featuring a performance from board member Irina Maleeva, an accomplished actress, singer, and producer. Additionally, BgCC-LA has a planned collaboration with the Bulgarian Concert Evenings New York at Carnegie Hall on October 29, 2025, promising an exciting addition to the concert schedule.
On September 21, 2025, BgCC-LA will host a launch event in Beverly Hills, which will be an invitation-only fundraiser designed to support operational expenses for the upcoming concert season. The event will feature a silent auction, a mini-concert, and a cocktail party, providing an opportunity for supporters to engage with the organization’s mission while contributing to its sustainability.
The organization, which recently achieved recognition as a 501(c)3 non-profit by the State of California and the IRS, is directed by Grammy-winning composer Penka Schweiger and international violin virtuoso Blagomira Lipari. Their combined experience and dedication to classical music mark a significant step toward enriching the cultural landscape of Los Angeles. The board includes notable figures such as filmmaker George Nicholas, alongside Maleeva.
BgCC-LA is not new to the performance scene; it has previously held concerts that honor significant cultural events, including a celebration for Bulgaria’s Liberation Day and a participation in the Los Angeles Classical Music INC’s World Music Day. The organization’s commitment extends beyond just concerts; it aims to foster engagement with emerging musicians through artist residencies and masterclasses, facilitating personal and professional growth for young artists.
Moreover, BgCC-LA concerts will incorporate a multimedia presentation, providing narratives that highlight themes of resilience, ingenuity, and the universal quest for freedom and purpose. This innovative approach to concerts aims to create a more encompassing and engaging experience for attendees, transcending the traditional concert format.
As the implementation of the inaugural concert season unfolds, BgCC-LA is poised to become an influential player in both the local and international classical music scenes, enriching the fabric of Los Angeles’ artistic community. With a focus on educational outreach and cultural exchange, the organization is dedicated to presenting innovative concert programs and music that resonates deeply with diverse audiences.
