The famous Bulgarian pianist Prof. Pavlina Dokovska is the Head of the Piano Department at one of the cream of the crop schools of music in the USA – Mannes School of Music in New York City. She is also Founder and Artistic Director of Mannes Festivals and Southwest Virginia Festival for the Arts.
We cordially thank Prof. Pavlina Dokovska, who is the producer and the engine of the concerts of scholarship holders of our Foundation titled ‘Musical Treasures from Bulgaria’ held annually in Carnegie Hall, Weil Recital Hall. Without her energy, professionalism and assistance, the organization of the above event would have been unthinkable.
Prof. Pavlina Dokovska established and provides the funds for the ‘Lidia Kuteva’ scholarship for young pianists, commemorating the work of the prominent Bulgarian piano teacher who has trained brilliant piano players. The scholarship is awarded to a young pianist studying at the “Lubomir Pipkov” National School of Music, Sofia.
For herself, Prof. Dokovska says: “I am very, very much Bulgarian. I left for the USA alone with a Fulbright scholarship. I had no friends. I have lived through years of hardship and now I consider it my moral duty to help young Bulgarian musicians, who come to the United States. I am busy organizing series of concerts, which I have titled ‘Musical Treasures from Bulgaria’. My goal is to acquaint the American audience with talented Bulgarian musicians”.
Prof. Pavlina Dokovska is a member of the Council of “St. Cyril and St. Methodius” International Foundation.
