How fulfilling it is to see fans searching, even begging, for tickets for a worthy event in Bulgaria.This was the picture in front of Sofia Live Club last night, and the reason was the first Bulgarian concert of the legendary trio Rosenberg. The cousins Stochello Rosenberg (solo guitar), Nous’che Rosenberg (rhythm guitar), and Nonnie Rosenberg (bass) took part in the festival Sofia Jazz Peak. The legends of gypsy jazz got up on stage at exactly 9:15 PM to touch every fret of our souls. And they did it… In the first part we were taken back to the 30’s and 40’s with Django Reinhardt’s unforgettable compositions- Minor Blues, Dream of You, Tears, Hungaria, Friday 13th and others. The Indian summer was creeping in further towards us with every performance and in a flash, June became August. Every single swing or ballad was played with flawless precision and absolute class. Every tone had a meaning, and every phrase was a step in the hot sand. I do not know how the strings did not melt… The second part began with one of Stochello’s more emblematic compositions, devoted to his sister- For Sephora- and the atmosphere definitely got heated. God, what do these men do with their guitars! I don’t know whether a marvel such as a “chromatic glissando dimension” exists, but I know I was unconsciously in it. Even more dizzying was the piece Limehouse Blues, whose intense tempo made us cross-eyed. We also heard Carlos Santana’s lyrical masterpiece Moonflower. Then came Bossa Dorado, and for the finale, the relatives winked at each other and left us mesmerized with the classic Les Yeux Noirs. Countless glowing eyes and satisfied smiles in the audience, among which I spotted Ivo Siromahov. Without waiting long, the Dutch trio came out for an encore and invited on stage the Serbian master of rock Vladko Stefanovsky (with the hat in the photo). That’s what I call a surprise! We were on cloud nine, bordering insanity. These acoustic beasts captured our hearts with their gypsy swing, lunatic tempo, flawless technique, and class. Simply a godly night. A truly unforgettable 6-string utopia, worthy for the music textbooks.
