Summary/Abstract: Opera is not just an art. The opera is communication. The colossal work of the hundreds of Bulgarian composers, conductors, directors, librettists, singers, musicians, choreographers, dancers and other persons associated with the opera who have built with their art over the years the Bulgarian opera glory can also be described as building a dialogue between cultures. In this long-term building, the Sofia Opera and Ballet has a key place and deserved recognition as a communicator of Bulgarian culture around the world. This text is devoted to the recent contributions and acknowledgements that have won the performances and artists of the Sofia Opera and Ballet in the last few years, their media images that strengthen the role of our first opera theater (established in 1890) as a communicator of Bulgarian culture around the world.
