Love for Ghena - musical portrait dedicated to her 75th anniversary (2016)

The 69-minute musical portrait, written and directed by Dimitar Sotirov and cameraman and producer Milena Stoykova is dedicated to 75-years anniversary since the birth of the great dramatic soprano Ghena Dimitrova. The film reminds her major performances on stages all over the world including Arena di Verona, La Scala - Milan, Metropolitan Opera - New York, Nagoya - Japan, Sofia, Naples - Italy, Pleven - Bulgaria (her native city). Airs and duets from operas by Verdi, Puccini, Mascagni and Giordano are mixed with souvenirs about the performer of her colleagues and friends. Among them are Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo, Fiorenza Cosotto, Roberto Scandiuzzi, Kurt Rydl, Bruna Baglioni, Alexandrina Milcheva, Alexandrina Pendachanska, Anna Tomowa-Syntow, Luciana d’Intino. It is the first time when unique pictures featuring Ghena Dimitrova behind the stage, rehearsing with partners like Nicola Martinucci and Giuseppe Giacomini could be seen on screen. There are also intimate moments of the performer with her family, friends and students. The film shows great moments from the life of the soprano such as her awarding with “Puccini” award together with Franco Zeffirelli in Torre del Lago.

A very special artist and lovely soul. In fact, the Turandot she did with the Great Domingo at Milan is my all time favorite production of the opera. Many thanks for sharing. Paz.

Eine wundervolle Sängerin. Große Stimme. In Deutschland und Österreich leider nicht so beachtet wie sie es verdient hatte.

Божествено пеене! Велика певица! Прекрасна жена--човечна, трудолюбива и скромна, невероятно интелигентна и благородна! Гигантски глас, извиращ от гигантско сърце! Нека нейният единствен по рода си глас се слее с ангелското пеене в небесните селения на БОГА!

Great immortal singer and artist.

Happy Birthday 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

[@FelipeViannaNutriUFRJ]

A grand artist! He mastered the vocal technique with such mastery that he became aware of the instrument itself, resulting in an impressive vocal longevity. Who, at age 60, can do sing with such quality and firmness in your voice? Very few! And she didn't have a limited repertoire... She shone in soprano roles and mezzo roles. Despite being arrogant with the talent she had, she was always a very humble and approachable person, according to several people who had the honor of living with her. May she rest in POWER! ❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
