Radio Bulgaria celebrates 80 years of broadcasting next year and has just started today on june 4 a new series of called Bulgarian National Radio: 80 Years in 80 Weeks". From the introductory opening remarks in today's episode 1: "In our feature 80 years in 80 weeks, Radio Bulgaria presents this national treasure – Bulgaria's memory in sound, preserved in the BNR's Golden Fund archives. We shall bring you archive recordings, bringing to life interesting events and facts, the voices of politicians, writers, poets, musicians, journalists, athletes who have made their mark in the life of the country. We shall hear recordings we have every right to be proud of, things that give food for thought, things we can now reassess in the light of the times gone by." This looks to be an interesting series - and if today's 6 minute feature is typical, the end result will run to a combined total of 8 hours!. (http://www.bnr.bg)
