                  The Congress College Business community, acting under the aegis of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, has held an end-of-the-year gala titled “The Great December Cultural-Entertaining Revolution.” The celebration took place on the premises of the Revolution center for music, generously provided by one of the members of the business community, production director Igor Sandler.

                  Wine tasting throughout the evening was provided by the Kaudal wine house. A music video was demonstrated as a present for all “colleagues.” A special song was used for the video, using music from “The Forest Raised a Christmas Tree” (a famous Russian New Year's song) and lyrics specially written by the Congress College Chairman, EAJC Vice President Yuri Raskin, lauding each of the “colleagues.”

                  Several music groups and solitary musicians of various genres – from jazz to hard rock - affiliated with Igor Sandler's recording studio SI-Records played at the gala concert. Poet Vladimir Vishnevsky read at the end of the concert.

                  The guests of the evening included the President of the Russian Financial Corporation Bank, former Minister of Economic Affairs of Russia in 1992-1993 Andrei Nechayev, EAJC Secretary General Michael Chlenov, Chairman of the Consumers' Union of Russia Petr Shelisch, director and maitre de ballet Yuri Sherman.
