BV Artists International (previously known as Bulgarian Virtuosi Artists) was founded in 1995 in New York by Kalin Ivanov in order to provide professional management and consulting services to a growing community of chamber music artists from Eastern Europe then taking root in the cultural hub of the West: New York City. Today, BV Artists International manages a select roster of international artists whose careers in serious music focus principally on live performance and recordings.
The clients of BVAI are notable performing and recording artists and, in many cases, also master teachers and clinicians. Although each artist is unique, the clients of the BVAI roster share some common goals and interests: a lifetime dedication to the highest standards of excellence in performance, a command of the standard, classic repertoire that is the touch stone of western musical culture, a commitment to the cultivation and proliferation of contemporary composition by today’s best composers, a solemn pledge to the education and training of the young and the edification of new audiences destined to discover the irresistible beauty and power of great music.
