Bulgaria
"The Real Thing" is a memoir of a post-student adventure in the 1980s. After attending a music conservatory, and realizing the glamour life of a concert pianist probably wasn't in the cards, I got hooked on Bulgarian folk music. In a quest for the pure musical traditions, and likewise searching for authenticity in my life, I learned a bit of the language and traveled around Bulgaria for several months. I didn't expect purity and authenticity to include being removed from a bus at gunpoint, being prevented from leaving the country when I wanted to, or experiencing unique moments of friendship and sharing across a daunting cultural divide.
