"We have rarely been welcomed with such a great enthusiasm as here in Berlin," conductor Nayden Todorov said last night after the end of the performance. According to him, many people have expressed their surprise that there is an orchestra with such a sound and style of performance that they did not know about.
The musicians performed Symphony No. 4 by Mendelssohn and Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 3 by Pancho Vladigerov with soloist Lyudmil Angelov. The concert will be broadcast on Medici and Mezzo TV channels.
