Another event of the State Opera – Burgas for Season 2024/2025 and the first for the month of November, is a concert that deserves the attention of fans of symphonic music. Under the baton of the distinguished conductor Jordan Dafova varied concert program, selected with flair and taste, will be presented at The symphony concert on November 1, Friday, at 7 p.m. in the hall of the Burgas Opera House.
The doyen in the Bulgarian cultural space, maestro Dafov, recipient of the “Golden Century” award of the Ministry of Culture. The talented and respected conductor from Burgas is distinguished for his contribution to the development of culture and the affirmation of national identity.
Yordan Dafov is charged with inexhaustible creative energy and may he continue to be a benchmark for the class.
Every musical event under his baton becomes an unforgettable aesthetic experience. The Easter concert under his direction – at the beginning of May t. year, in which over 100 performers took part on stage – soloists, orchestra, choir, filled the Opera hall with an emotional audience and had a wide public response.
Yordan Dafov knows how to give every event the aura of initiation into the mystery of high art and the spiritual dimensions of the path to Perfection.
The symphony concert is in Wake Up Day – the symbolism and coincidence are not coincidental – the art-makers and ardent worshipers of the classical musical traditions are contemporary awakeners who are pillars of spirituality.
Under the baton of maestro Dafov, soloist of the orchestra of the Burgas Opera /with concertmasters Vanya Zlateva and Hristo Belchev/, the 23-year-old violinist Victor Trenevwinner of numerous international awards and performed on a number of prestigious stages, will perform Concerto for violin and orchestra in D major, opus 61 by Ludwig van Beethoven.
According to the information of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Bulgaria, together with Viktor Mitsev, viola, a few days ago, on October 25, , Viktor Trenev took part as a soloist in the annual charity concert of the Japan Association for Cultural and Musical Exchange at the invitation of maestro Mitsuyoshi Oikawa and the Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria in Tokyo.
The concert took place in the prestigious concert hall Kioi Hall in Tokyo.
The program included works for piano and orchestra by Chopin and Mozart for viola and violin. The charity concert is organized annually by the Japan Association for Cultural and Musical Exchange, whose chairman is the famous Japanese conductor Mitsuyoshi Oikawa.
In addition to Beethoven’s Violin Concerto, on Friday the following will be performed in the Opera hall: “Classical and romantic” opus 24 for chamber orchestra /transcription of the original cycle for piano” by Pancho Vladigerov/.
On March 13, 1899, the great Bulgarian composer, considered a modern classic, was born – Prof. Pancho Vladigerov. In this year 2024 we celebrate 125 years since his birth. The Burgas Opera, under the direction of Maestro Dafov, had the privilege and honor to be the first to celebrate the landmark anniversary – before the event itself, at the Christmas concert in December 2023.
That is why the famous conductor chose to perform an emblematic work of Vladiger – rhapsody “Vardar”, which is the bearer of the best of the national musical traditions. In the “Vardar” rhapsody motifs from Bulgarian folk music are interwoven with a remarkable artistic power with the feeling of ancestral memory and reverence for the beauty of the Motherland.
The great Bulgarian classical composer Pancho Vladigerov /1899 – 1978/ created the piano cycle “Classical and Romantic” Op. 24 in Berlin in 1931. Later in 1940, having returned to Bulgaria, the composer made a transcription of the work for chamber orchestra.
The final piece to be performed at the Symphony Concert on November 1 is Symphony No. 5 in B flat major D. 485 by Franz Schubert, established in October 1816, is quite chamber and in scale.
In this Schubert symphony, the influence of the Viennese classics and above all of Mozart is still felt. At the time he composed the symphony, Schubert was deeply obsessed with the genius of his predecessor, and in his diary on June 13, 1816, he wrote: “O Mozart! Immortal Mozart! What innumerable impressions of a brighter, better life you have left upon our souls!’
