Atanas Badev
Atanas Badev (Cyrillic: Атанас Бадев) (b. January 1860, Prilep, Ottoman Empire, present day Republic of Macedonia, 14 d. Sofia, Bulgaria, 21 September 1908) was a composer and music teacher from Macedonia (region). Badev studied music in Moscow and St. Petersburg and was taught by, to mention a few, the great Russian composers Balakirev and Rimsky-Korsakov. Apart from his choral adaptations of folk and children's songs, Badev is also the composer of The Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom (first published in Leipzig in 1898), one of the most significant works of this genre from the end of the 19th century. He is considered an ethnic Macedonian in his native Macedonia[1] and a Bulgarian in Bulgaria.[2]
