Grand Warden Celebrates Mozart... in England
Our Junior Grand Warden, TVF Sylvain Bissonnette, will soon be leaving for Manchester England, where he will be staging Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito.

"This is such a great opportunity for me and I am so happy", says TVF Bissonnette, "This opera was composed simultaneously with The Magic Flute and is really as Masonic as the Flute is. The major themes are equality, perseverance & forgiveness."

The story of La Clemenza di Tito takes place in Ancient Rome, as Titus Vespasian succeeds his father to the throne.
