The Virtuoso Pianist Monk Abel Returns to Bulgaria with New Concerts!
After touching and shaking the Bulgarian audience last year with his exquisite piano performances, Monk Abel is returning to Bulgaria with new solo concerts in January 2026 in Sofia and Plovdiv.
Monk Abel (born Anton Shchulkin) is an absolute sensation on social media and digital video platforms, especially on YouTube, where the numbers are astonishing: 491,000 subscribers and nearly 90,000,000 views!
The story of Monk Abel's public musical career is particularly intriguing. In 2017, he was part of the monastic brotherhood at the Dochiariou Monastery on Saint Mount Athos. There, while fulfilling his monastic duties, he had access to a special piano to cultivate his musical talent. Initially, he played during his free time between long liturgical services, private prayer rule, and labor in service of the monastery. However, the abbot of Dochiariou, Gerondas Grigory (Zumis), personally blessed him to give live concerts around the world and online.
