Svetlana Ancheva was born in 1972 in Rousse, Bulgaria. She first studied the piano and then the oboe in her home town. Continuing her education at the Sofia Academy of Music, she obtained two diplomas: oboe and choral conducting. She completed her training in the master classes of David Walter. In 1998, she joined the Rousse Philharmonic Orchestra. As a soloist in most Bulgarian orchestras, she also participated in a large concert tour with the Dublin Philharmonic in the United States and, in the period 2012-2014, she was principal oboe in the orchestra of the Chigiana Academy in Italy. She is the founder of the chamber music ensemble « Formantique » which aims to perform mainly Bulgarian and French music. She creates many arrangements for this ensemble, and in 2003 the French publisher Gérard Billaudot published her transcription for oboe and piano of Bach’s chorale Nun komm der’Heiden Heiland in the David Walter collection. As a soloist she has performed many Bulgarian premieres and two world premieres of works for oboe and piano by Bulgarian composers such as Vasil Kazanjev and Konstantin Iliev. She has participated in many international festivals, and in this year 2017, there is a sort of anniversary: twentieth time at the Coréades!…
