On this gala occasion which has become already a tradition met the representatives of the academia, politics, Church and other honorary guests. The chosen performance for this year was an imaginative opera Magic Flute by Mozart in which fairy-tale and comic elements meld with sage philosophy and symbolism of the mysterious Masonic order.
