27 november 2021 Great Мusical Аnd Аrtistic Еvening Вith "Primadonna-Donna-Donna"
At the end of November, on a rainy autumn evening, the Opera Hall hosted a defense audience for the concert performance "Primadonna-Donna-Donna !!!" https://facebook.com/events/s/primadonna-donna-donna/426029648881093/.
The concert program, performed by the three soloists of the Burgas Opera - Maria Tsvetkova-Madzharova - soprano, Nona Krastnikova - soprano, Ioana Kadiyska - mezzo-soprano, under the piano accompaniment of Iliana Todorova, presented different nuances of the mood of the changing female nature, which varies between different extremes - from hidden sadness to ecstatic exaltation.
Blistering charm, artistry, brilliant vocal mastery, with different accents and characterology - for each of the wonderful singers, refined and emotionally fused with the performances musical line of the piano accompaniment, harmoniously complementing each of the arias and ensembles.
The premiere of the concert performance "Primadonna-Donna-Donna !!!" was exactly a year ago, as the music project won the prize for "Event of November 2020" in the show "Eternal Music" on BNT, with author and host Mario Nikolov and third place in the annual ranking "Music Event of the Year". Then the pianist Mira Iskarova was on the piano.
The attractive concert was also scheduled for the end of the summer season on the island of St. Anastasia, but due to strong sea waves, the event was canceled at the last minute.
Tonight, although not among the natural decor of the picturesque island nature, the enriched concert program brought aesthetic pleasure and emotions subordinated to passion, the tender empathy of feelings passing through different tonalities of human perception.
The audience felt and appreciated the high performing skills and professionalism - not only as singing but also as stage behavior, great costumes, different for each performance and impressive in the nature of the primates, personal charisma, and overall energy balance.
The successful stage design, props, mise-en-scène solutions, and lighting were also on the level.
On the stage during the whole concert as a beautiful addition was the flower basket on behalf of the Mayor of Burgas Dimitar Nikolov.
A warm and meaningful, saturated with the scent of femininity and class musical-artistic evening was created in the hall of the Burgas Opera.
