During Holy Week, on the eve of Good Friday, the State Opera of Ruse traditionally reaches out to its audience through a thematic concert in its Easter program, delivering a message of humility and a call to revere the beauty of eternal musical and poetic art, rooted in the foundations of European Christian civilization. In these days of repentance and reflection, the choir and orchestra of the Ruse Opera turn to a profoundly spiritual work – the Requiem by the French composer Gabriel Fauré.
