Social Initiatives Hall of Fame

In 2013, under the CIS Local Counsel Forum and RULG's social initiative, we introduced two of Ukraine's national treasures to the Forum's Delegates and Guests:

The National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine and the Odessa Philharmonic Orchestra

The wonderful musicians of the Odessa Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Chief Conductor Maestro Hobart Earle, graciously and generously contributed their time to the Forum and gave us an unforgettable concert on 29 June 2013.

We couldn't agree more with one of the Forum's Guests, Ms. Judy Coffin who said:
"…highlight must be the Odessa Symphony Orchestra. It was an inspired idea, and the orchestra (and Hobart) were so incredibly generous with their time. What a lovely memory, sitting in the front row for our own private concert."

On behalf of the CIS Local Counsel Forum, RULG, and both the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine and the Odessa Philharmonic Orchestra, we would like to extend our gratitude to the Forum's Delegates who contributed to the 2013 Forum's cultural initiative:
