"If you want to hear a genuine Bulgarian women's song, you should stay in Stockholm. Under their leader Michael Deltchev, the Vocal Ensemble Perunika has in a few years developed into one of the very best ensembles with this repertoire."
Bo Nilsson - Eric Ericson Halls
"He (my father) was very impressed with the level and quality of your Bulgarian folk choir (Sedjanka in Denmark and later Perunika in Sweden), the amazing work you have done with them and was happy for your great achievements! I also remember that he always truly enjoyed the visits and working with you and the choirs! Unforgettable times! Thank you for continuously shearing and keeping it alive. For performing it with the authenticity, love, beauty and high levels of music making which he had!"

Perunika female choir is a vocal ensemble from Stockholm,
established in August 2014.
The mutual interest in the open, non-vibrato style of chest voices singing brought the idea of founding a female vocal ensemble together with the Bulgarian born conductor Michael Deltchev.
The music is performed in Bulgarian language and in different style characteristics, reflecting the origin of the music with the text and embellishments making explicit the differences of the ethnographic and folk music regions in Bulgaria.
