On 2 March, at 11 h with the spectacle “Borislav”, an opera by Maestro Georgi Atanasov, the Sofia Opera will celebrate the 139th Anniversary of the Liberation of Bulgaria from Ottoman yoke.

The Maestro is the first composer of historical operas in our country.

The appearance of “Borislav” on Bulgarian stage, first in Sofia and in Veliko Tarnovo, had a great success.

The historian Simeon Radev wrote that in the beginning of the XX century, thanks to the Opera many fathers began to name their sons with the name Borislav.

The time 11 h, when will be performed the historical opera, is appropriate also for pupils, students, pensioners, for everyone who would like to touch to our glorious past.
