This is Lyubomir Denev's first visit to the Twin Cities, and he will be featured at the Fourteenth Balkanicus - Annual Concert of Balkan Contemporary Music on April 21 at 7:30 p.m. at Lloyd Ultan Recital Hall at the University of Minnesota. His new work Balkan Sounds and Landscapes, for clarinet, violin (gadulka), cello and marimba, was commissioned by the Balkanicus Ensemble.
