 born
in 1976 in Stara Zagora, Trakia, ranks among the grand masters of the
Bulgarian shephard’s pipe Kaval, from which he draws a spectrum, far
beyond traditional music, of sounds and improvising jazz phrases – since
Theodosii Spassov’s experiments on this instrument nothing uncommon

visited the musical primary school in Kotel and graduated at the music
department of the Academy of Art in Plovdiv, where he also met his wife
Magdalena. Dimiter Karamitev feels most likely influenced by Matiu Dobrev’s
play, Ivo Papassov’s kaval player.
