Los Angeles’ only Bulgarian folk dance ensemble "XoroTroptzi" brought tons of festive emotions to the audience during the 64th Annual Los Angeles County Holiday Celebration. On December 24, the group led by Veselka Vasileva performed "Shopska Kitka" and impressed both those present at the celebration and the viewers in front of the television screens.

At the beginning of December, the ensemble were also guests to "KTLA 5" television channel, where in addition to music, its members talked about the magnificent Bulgarian nature, the Bulgarian alphabet, yogurt and rose oil.


The folk dance ensemble "XoroTroptzi” - Los Angeles, California, was created in October 2012, on the idea of Alina Marinova. It includes more than 20 people and functions in the framework of the Bulgarian American Cultural and Educational Foundation (BACEF).

Expect a special interview with the head of the ensemble Veselka Vasileva early next year on Radio Bulgaria.
