In Burgas, they will present the pre-premiere film “The Master of Sound”, dedicated to Burgasian Prof. Ivo Keremedchiev. The production will be broadcast on November 17, at 18:00, in the “Georgi Baev” hall, announced the press center of the Municipality.
The tape is inspired by the life and work of Prof. Ivo Keremidchiev. In 2000, on his initiative, together with Yulia Nenova, the “Sound Directing” specialty was opened at the National School of Music and Performing Arts (NUMSI) “Prof. Pancho Vladigerov” in Burgas.
Many of the shots in the film were shot in Keremedchiev’s hometown. In the tape, famous musical figures in Bulgaria – composers, teachers and musicians – talk about him.
Prof. Keremidchiev was born on May 11, 1954 in Burgas. He graduated from the violin major at NUMSI “Prof. Pancho Vladigerov”. One of his first appearances was in front of a Burgas audience.

Together with the orchestra, he performed numerous concerts, both in front of Bulgarian audiences and abroad – in Germany, Italy, Cuba and others.
In 1978-79, the maestro was a member of the symphony orchestra of the city of Cagliari, Italy. For 35 years he worked at the National Academy of Music “Pancho Vladigerov”, Sofia.
