He gives concerts actively and participates in different projects with the world-famous musicians Theodosii Spassov and the virtuoso players Ivo Papazov, Petar Ralchev and Stoyan Yankulov. Peyo is a soloist in the Bulgarian National Radio Folk Music Orchestra and a teacher in Academy of Music, Dance and Visual Arts “Prof. Asen Diamandiev” – Plovdiv. He won the Golden Gadulka prize twice, named after the famous gadulka player Yanko Petrov.
