Delos Diary

Bermuda and Bridge

Devotees of TV nature series know all about the famed Bermuda Triangle, a mysterious area south of the resort island which seems to lure seafarers and airliners into unexplained disappearances.
We have now restored Bermuda's good name and reputation by creating a new Delos version of the triangle, a threesome consisting of conductor Constantine Orbelian, the Moscow Chamber Orchestra, and pianist Carol Rosenberger.
On Tuesday February 15th at the Ruth Seaton James Center in the capital city of Hamilton, Bermuda, the Moscow Chamber Orchestra gave the second of two concerts conducted by music director Constantine Orbelian. Pianist Carol Rosenberger was the featured soloist and as a tribute to the island's British heritage she played the wonderful Chamber Concerto version of Frank Bridge's Quintet for Piano and Strings in D Minor (H. 49).
Delos fans are probably already familiar with the very successful CD of this music the same threesome recorded for Delos in 2001 (DE 3263).
From all reports, the Bermuda audience was delighted with the concert and Carol's stunning pianism. After the concert and post-concert jubilation they all disappeared into the Bermuda night happily humming the enchanting Bridge melodies.
Constantine, Carol, and the Orchestra, our golden triangle, defied the Bermuda legend and have all returned to mainland USA safe and sound with no enforced side trips to the Sargasso Sea.
