The concert in Turnovo is held exactly on the spot where the described events took place in 14th century – at the reconstructed palace of old Bulgarian tsars. This concert is filmed with the participation of a church choir, a folklore dance ensemble, as well as of the folk singer Daniela Velichkova and the virtuoso Rossen Genkov who plays the ancient Bulgarian string instrument rebec.
