A concert featuring world-renowned Bulgarian violinist, concertmaster and professor Borislava Ilcheva and the Havana Symphony Orchestra Lyceum Mozartiano, conducted by maestro José Antonio Méndez Padrón, took place at Havana Cathedral. The event was organised to celebrate International Women's Day on March 8, the Bulgarian Mission in Havana reported.
