Sound Valya Balkanska - Voice from the
eternity

Presenter Notes
Valya Mladenova Balkanska (Bulgarian ????
????????? ?????????) (born 8 January 1942) is a
Bulgarian folk music singer from the Rhodope
Mountains known locally for her wide repertoire
of Balkan folksong, but in the West mainly for
singing the song "Izlel e Delyu Haydutin", part
of the Voyager Golden Record selection of music
included in the two Voyager spacecraft launched
in 1977.

Born in a hamlet near the village of Arda,
Smolyan Province, Balkanska has been singing
Rhodopean folk songs since her early childhood.
She performs a repertoire of over 300 songs in
Bulgaria and abroad. Balkanska is most famous in
the West for "Izlel je Delyo hajdutin", which she
recorded in 1968 accompanied by the bagpipe
(gaida) players Lazar Kanevski and Stephan
Zahmanov.

Balkanska has been working with the Rodopa State
Ensemble for Folk Songs and Dances from Smolyan,
of which she is a soloist, since 1960. Her album
Glas ot vechnostta (Voice from the Eternity),
released in 2004, is a compilation of her
best-known songs, including "A bre yunache ludo i
mlado", "Goro le goro zelena", and "Maychinko
stara maychinko".

In 2002, Balkanska was awarded the Stara Planina
Orden (the highest Bulgarian award). She was
honoured with her own star plate on the Bulgarian
Walk of Fame in Sofia in December 2005.

Izlel e Delyu Haydutin was used as the opening
song for the Afghanistan documentary, Restrepo.
