All seats as well as the steps and the grass area of the splendid Plovdiv Antique Rome Theater were filled to the top with fans, who came from all over Bulgaria to hear the legendary Deep Purple keyboardist and composer.The concert was a joint production of Jon Lord and the two vocals traveling with him - Doogie White (Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, Yngwie Malmsteen) and Polish-born Kasia Laska, and the Plovdiv Philharmonic Orchestra, directed by Naiden Todorov. The concert included two parts - one with classic music and solo projects of Jon Lord and one with cover versions of Deep Purple's hit songs.
