Balgarianovinite.com Jazz, Latin rhythms, rock, pop and film music will be performed at 40 Fingers’ concert at Hall 1 of the National Palace of Culture on Thursday, the organisers from BG Sound Stage said. The musicians use the intuitive fingerpicking technique – playing the guitar or banjo using fingernails or small plectrums worn on the fingertips to pluck the strings.
“The Italian guitar quartet is a phenomenon that overturns perceptions of acoustic music and virtuously conquers stages around the world – from Italy to the United States, from Central Europe to the Middle East. The Italians already have loyal fans in Bulgaria as well, as evidenced by their third visit to the country,” BG Sound Stage said.
The group was founded in 2017 in Trieste by Matteo Brenci, Emanuele Grafitti, Enrico Maria Milanesi and Andrea Vittori. The Italian press often describes them not simply as a guitar ensemble, but as “four musicians who think like an orchestra”. Their first international breakthrough came via the internet. Their arrangement of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody went viral on social media, garnering millions of views on YouTube, while Queen’s official website shared the cover and described it as an incredible reinterpretation of the classic. This was followed by millions more YouTube views, hundreds of millions of impressions on social media and concert invitations across Europe and the United States. However, as a number of Italian cultural publications point out, their success has never been based solely on online popularity – it is most powerfully confirmed in live performances.
“Their performances are not just concerts, but musical narratives. Their repertoire brings together remarkable arrangements of songs and themes that everyone knows and loves: Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits, Hotel California by the Eagles, themes from Star Wars and Game of Thrones, even classical melodies such as Libertango or fragments of Vivaldi. The four musicians communicate with each other with an ease reminiscent of jazz improvisation. The music of 40 Fingers is universal. They equally impress devoted music lovers, guitarists who follow every note, and people who simply love good music, regardless of genre,” BG Sound Stage added. 40 Fingers to Play Jazz, Rock, Pop, Latin and Film Music at Sofia Concert 2026 THE NEWS FROM BULGARIA – NEWS AGENCY 2009-2025 2026-01-22 07:44:57 Latest news World news Country news Most important news latest news most important latest of the day Justice Petar Nizamov Feathers Petar Nizamov- Feathers Justice bg iustitia.bg iustitia iusticia usticia investigation Burgas Bulgaria news news of the last hour news of the day news of today Bulgaria news The news from Bulgaria blitz news top news most important most commented latest news Boyko Borisov news weather coronavirus news news weather facebook youtube facebook instagram news today news of the last minutes news today today news news bg news leading news hot news bg news site for news all news news bg news of the last hour latest latest news bg news of today news today news today news of the last hour latest news today news bg news news 24 hours news vesti bg novini news world bird bg bivol bg bivol trud bg novini latest news today novinite bg news hello bulgaria political party coat of arms delyan peevski scandalous Bulgarian National Television Free Europe Television scandal exclusive live tv live right now tv tv online tv program bg live now tv news online tv online live court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas district court Burgas appellate court Burgas prosecutor Burgas prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev Prosecutor Geshev Tsatsarov Ministry of Internal Affairs Burgas ODMR Burgas ODPR Burgas police Burgas district police Burgas prosecutor Tsatsarov SGS cases Varna court chairman of the SGS court decisions on civil cases decisions on cases Plovdiv court decision of the court decisions cases Varna court criminal cases district district court decisions work in the court SGS chairman of the SGS judges Sofia court post judges Plovdiv court Plovdiv judges Plovdiv Supreme Court Inspectorate Supreme Court Supreme Judicial Council lawyer lawyer criminal cases lawyer civil cases lawyer marriage cases lawyer administrative criminal law criminal process civil law civil process administrative law constitutional law
