About Красимир Аврамов

KRASSIMIR AVRAMOV (Красимир Аврамов in bulgarian) The Bulgarian city of Sliven (population 110,000) is not so well known for its chief industrial product, light bulbs, but instead for being the birthplace of Krassimir Avramov, known as “Krassi” by friends and the “Man-voice” by fans. Indeed, Krassimir may just be the brightest light ever to come out of Sliven. A graduate of the National Academy for Theatrical and Film Arts (NATFIZ), he trained in pantomime under the guidance of the famous Professor Vassil Indzhev. But Krassimir is blessed with a very rare and unique male voice, the tenor-altino, and could not stay silent for long. His 1997 debut album, “Silent Voices” topped the pop charts in Bulgaria. One year later Krassimir’s journey would continue in the entertainment capital of the world, Los Angeles, California. At the 2005 L.A. Music Awards, Krassimir received an honor previously bestowed upon such music notables as Gwen Stefani, Korn and Black-Eyed Peas: he won “Superstar of the Year.” Krassimir celebrated with a standing-room only concert at Hollywood’s home of the Oscars, the prestigious Kodak Theatre. There he displayed to an adoring crowd his bending and blending of musical genres - the synergistic combination of classical music and pop that gives its name to his latest album, “Popera.” If a musician is defined by the company he keeps, then it is worth noting that in December 2008 “The Best Pop-Opera 2009, Volume 2 ” was released, a compilation featuring pop-opera greats, Jose Carreras and Mario Frangoulis; Krassimir’s “Memories” is the first song in the album
