Talk:Music of Bulgaria

message: I just noticed that the "Folk Dances" and "Selected Discography" that I originally created for the "Folk Music" section was at the wrong level.  I've moved them down a level, which will hopefully stop people from adding modern music to it.
Somebody who knows more about modern Bulgarian music might want to start a selected discography for that section as well. How you will prevent it from becoming a list of every album people know about will be the biggest part of the effort. ;^) --wrp103 (Bill Pringle) 13:36, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I know this has nothing to do with the article, but how do you get bots to revert graffiti on articles or are they automaticly provided by wikipedia? --Danielspencer91 12:11, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: They work automatically, when they're "on". Bots are run by certain users who know how to use them.  See WP:BOTS. --Fang Aili talk 14:39, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Could someone improve the explanation of Bulgarian rhythms, now discussed in the section headed 'Folk dances'?  I made a few improvements but I am not knowlegeable.  It should be pointed out that the description in terms of  "quick" and "slow" beats is a simplification, also there could be more on rhythms that are combinations of other rhythms (krivo rhythms), and other details.  There is a good discussion in Bulgarian dances.      Also I believe these complex 'asymmetric' rhythms aren't limited to music used for folk dance, so maybe this section should be renamed: 'Asymmetric meters'? 'Bulgarian rhythms'? --ChetvornoTALK 00:09, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Is that so? As far as I know, these are also common in Hungarian and Romanian music, but I might be mistaken... -- megA (talk) 11:58, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

message: And it feels like nothing was brought from Arabs from which Chalga highly depends, i think this article should be re-written by a Bulgarian, and if no one will i shall do it my self when you get read of it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.18.152.147 (talk) 12:17, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

replies: text:  To be more precise she sings mostly pop-folk, although I am not familiar with this type of music (not a fan at all) and thus cannot distinguish between pure chalga and pop-folk. Some people claim there is a difference and that pop-folk sounds more like pop music and chalga is more or less typical Bulgarian gipsy music. Would be nice to read a word from an expert (someone who actually studies the art of music in Bulgaria) and not go into pointless arguments.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rbaleksandar (talk • contribs) 21:49, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Do you have a reference for the distinction between popfolk and chalga? I have never heard of this and the BG-wikipedia also says its the same thing. Arved (talk) 14:14, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Sadly - no. Otherwise I would post it here, discuss it and put it in the article myself. Rbaleksandar (talk) 18:31, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

message: The article provides some examples of "notable names from the contemporary pop scene", but the examples given are of artists that were active back in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Emil Dimitrov, one of the examples given, has been deceased for over 15 years now. Vasil Naydenov hasn't released a record in over 20 years, and Lili Ivanova, while still touring and performing live, has been active since 1961 and is over 80 years old. I doubt any of them could be classified as "contemporary".
Should these examples be changed to more contemporary artists?
