Originally scheduled for the Hilbert Circle Theatre, the venue change was prompted by the needs of the National Football League and the Indianapolis Super Bowl XLVI Committee to reserve large venues in the downtown area that are capable of hosting various Super Bowl events and activities. Preparations to host NBC’s Live with Jimmy Fallon during Super Bowl week will be underway at the ISO’s home that weekend. This all-Russian classical weekend, conducted by Princeton Symphony Orchestra Music Director Rossen Milanov, will open with Dmitri Shostakovich’s Festive Overture, a light and celebratory piece that the composer wrote to mark the anniversary of the Bolshevik overthrow of the Russian government in 1917. Buniatishvili will introduce herself to Indianapolis audiences in performances of one of the crown jewels of the piano repertoire, Sergei Rachmaninoff’s popular Second Piano Concerto.

  • SHEDDING LIGHT on BULGARIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRAS /PIANO Or FORTЕ
    SHEDDING LIGHT ON BULGARIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRAS /PIANO or FORTЕ/ Brief historic notes Orchestral music-making in Bulgaria goes back to mid-nineteenth century when in the Northeastern, multilingual town of Shumen the first ensemble was founded. It had entertainment and promotional purposes rather than serious concert activities. The significance of the ensemble though is mainly in the first establishment of a repertoire (Bulgarian and foreign) which was suitable for performance, as well as bringing together professionally educated national musicians and music-makers. Over WW2 orchestras developed in Bulgaria in lows and peaks. Those days gave rise to the Guards Orchestra (1892) conducted by Joseph Hohola; the Academic Symphony Orchestra (1928) and the Royal Military Symphony Orchestra (1936)both founded in Sofia by Prof. Sasha Popov; the State Philharmonic Orchestra at the National Opera (1935). At concerts in Bulgaria and abroad they perform major works by national and international musical classics. These ensembles invited outstanding guest conductors and soloists – Fausto Magnani, Karl Bohm, Bruno Walter, Edmondo de Vecchi, Emil Kupper, Carlo Zecchi, Henry Marteau, Paul Wittgenstein, Dinu Lipatti etc. After the end of the war the dynamic history of Bulgarian orchestras included both the above listed and numerous new ensembles founded all over the country. The Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra continued the tradition of the Sofia-based ensembles. The Philharmonic has performed with conductors Konstantin Iliev, Dobrin Petkov, Vassil Stefanov, Vladi Simeonov, Dimitar Manolov, Yordan Dafov, Emil Tabakov etc. At approximately the same time the capital saw the rise and establishment of yet another outstanding ensemble – the Symphony Orchestra of the Bulgarian National Radio (1948).
