The young pianist is a graduate of the National Academy of Music Pancho Vladigerov. When he was a student, he joined projects related to electronic music and various experiments. Jazz and improvisation is his biggest love, but he has some knowledge and experience in classical music and folklore. The project “Music under the Tree” was conceived and implemented together with actress Katerina Stoyanova with the support of the Sofia Municipality. It is connected with the “Solidarity in Culture” initiative.
The story of the video concert broadcast live on June 28 is similar to many other artistic “explosions” during the quarantine. Dimitar and his girlfriend Katerina Stoyanova decided to isolate in a family house in Zlatitsa- a small town located near Bulgaria’s capital Sofia. There, the idea about the “Music Under the Tree” was born. The concert was held online in their house yard in the accompaniment of bird songs and dog’s bark. Most of the songs are author’s pieces and we learn from the video that one of them- “Universe” was recorded on a video directed by Katerina.
Professional musicians and lovers of conspiracy theories will perhaps be able to understand an interesting detail - Dimitar tuned the middle A on his electric piano to 432 HZ, a lower frequency used before middle A was tuned to 440HZ (according to some sources by a decree issued by Goebbels). In 1953 a worldwide agreement was signed. Signatories declared that middle A on the piano be furthermore tuned to exactly 440HZ. It is believed that lower frequency brings peace and harmony. The video to the “Music under the Tree will be available online until the end of July.”
