Russian Rhapsody Gala Dinner
Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi, 9 November 2008
Russian Rhapsody is already firmly established as an extraordinary evening of charity, music and fine dining in London, however, on the occasion of the 1st Russia Investment Roadshow in UAE, this spectacular social event will move to Abu Dhabi for an incredible celebration of Russian art, classical music and high culture. Russian Rhapsody Gala Dinner will be the key VIP social event of the Russia Investment Roadshow in Dubai.
Russian Rhapsody is an event which goes hand-in-hand with the Russia Investment Roadshow, which brings investors, businesspeople, government ministers and key opinion formers to key financial centres around the globe to explore the growing impact of Russian business on the world economy. While providing a valuable social net-working opportunity for Roadshow participants, Russian Rhapsody has become a well-respected cultural event in its own right and is frequented by Russians and guests from around the world. In the seven years of its existence in the UK, it has delivered a glittering array of top class musicians to some of London's most prestigious venues and evoked then just as it evokes now a spirit truly Russian in both spirit and scale. Leading international musical stars who have taken part in the event in previous years have included the likes of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Valery Gergiev, Yuri Bashmet, Denis Matsuev, Sergei Leiferkus, Marina Poplavskaya, Lyuba Kazarnovskaya, Dmitry Bertman, Olga Borodina, Victor Tretiakov, Zurab Sotkilava and Igor Butman.
