The events took place at the end of the 9th and the first half of the 10th century in the central Sredets region of the then Bulgarian kingdom. As a historical time, this was the golden age of Bulgaria, during the rule of the kings St. Boris-Michael, Simeon the Great and St. Peter. Churches and monasteries were built all over the Bulgarian land, and the Orthodox Christian faith flourished. It was an age of both great spiritual conquests and resounding victories. All this is in complete contrast to the categorical refusal of the young and wonderful John from everything earthly. After the death of his parents, he gave away his property to the needy and left the “false world”, in which the first divisions and struggles for supremacy had already begun. The geographical area of the life and exploits of St. John includes the Osogovo Mountain, the Struma River, Vitosha and the Rila Desert.

The performance is dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the restoration of the Bulgarian Patriarchate.

Рилският пустинник
Музикална поема в две действия и десет картини

„Всички велегласно ти пеем: радвай се, преподобни отче наш Йоане!“

През 1937 г. българският общественик, писател, поет и етнограф Тихомир Павлов (1880-1937) създава и издава последната си поетична творба „Рилският пустинник“, според житието на всебългарския светец преподобни Йоан Рилски Чудотворец. За съжаление, тази уникална поема остава в забвение, докато през 2022 г. нашият съвременен свещенослужител, композитор, диригент и педагог отец Кирил Попов (р. 1955г.) я намира в своя личен архив и получава музикално вдъхновение.

Нека достойно да възпеем великия Рилски пустиножител и да знаем, че той винаги бди над нас и е наш молитвен ходатай пред Бога.
