U našoj ambiciji za razvijanjem inovativnih<br />

i konkurentnih turističkih proizvoda najviše<br />

razine kvalitete sadržaja i usluga, nismo izuzeli<br />

ulaganje u stvaranje jedinstvenih doživljaja,<br />

a <strong>Avantgarde</strong> <strong>Jazz</strong> <strong>festival</strong> je upravo dio tog<br />

našeg napora.<br />

Ideja za pokretanjem <strong>Avantgarde</strong> <strong>Jazz</strong><br />

Festivala nastala je iz želje da obogatimo<br />

kulturnu i turističku ponudu destinacije te<br />

da domaćoj i stranoj publici pružimo užitak<br />

slušanja jazz glazbe na prestižnim lokacijama<br />

u Rovinju. Tako smo pokrenuli ovaj <strong>festival</strong><br />

koji je u svom prvom izdanju ugostio neka<br />

od najpoznatijih imena svjetske jazz scene<br />

poput George Bensona ili pak vodeće skupine<br />

jazz fusion pokreta 70-ih predvođene Chick<br />

Coreaom - Return to Forever IV ali i mnogih<br />

drugih.<br />

I ove godine idemo s pomno biranim<br />

programom koji će zadovoljiti i najzahtjevniju<br />

publiku ljubitelja jazza, ali i oduševiti one koji<br />

će to tek postati. Od svibnja do srpnja Rovinj<br />

će ponovno okupiti impresivna glazbena<br />

imena i velikane jazza. Da se radi o značajnim<br />

imenima potvrđuje i izbor jazz kritičara<br />

uglednog časopisa <strong>Jazz</strong>Times prema kojima<br />

je čak sedam od deset izvođača koji će ove<br />

godine nastupiti u sklopu 2. <strong>Avantgarde</strong> <strong>Jazz</strong><br />

Festivala proglašeno među najboljima na<br />

svijetu!<br />

Kroz ovogodišnje, peto izdanje, mcm-a vodit<br />

ćemo vas kroz program Festivala ali brojna<br />

druga zanimljiva događanja u destinacijama<br />

Rovinj i Vrsar koja smo za vas pripremili.<br />

Ovim vas putem želim pozvati da posjetite<br />

hotele, naše posljednje dvije investicije,<br />

koji predstavljaju prekretnicu u turističkoj<br />

ponudi Rovinja: hotel Lone prvi Design hotel<br />

u Hrvatskoj kojeg je američki časopis Conde<br />

Nast Traveler proglasio jednim od najboljih<br />

novih hotela u 2012. godini te hotel Monte<br />

Mulini koji je nedavno postao dio jedne od<br />

najvećih svjetskih organizacija u luksuznom<br />

hotelijerstvu The Leading Hotels of the World.<br />

U želji da mcm postane vaš vodič kroz<br />

destinaciju, želim vam toplu dobrodošlicu!<br />

introduction<br />

Our ambition for developing innovative and<br />

competitive tourist products of the highest level<br />

of program and service quality did not exclude<br />

the investment into the creation of unique<br />

experience, and the <strong>Avantgarde</strong> <strong>Jazz</strong> Festival is<br />

precisely a part of our efforts.<br />

The idea to initiate the <strong>Avantgarde</strong> <strong>Jazz</strong><br />

Festival originated from the wish to enrich the<br />

cultural and tourist offer of the destination<br />

and provide the domestic and foreign audience<br />

with the pleasure of listening to jazz music on<br />

prestigious locations in Rovinj. This is how we<br />

started this <strong>festival</strong>, which in its first edition<br />

hosted some of the most famous names of the<br />

world jazz scene, like George Benson or the<br />

leading group of the jazz fusion movement<br />

of the 1970s led by Chick Corea - Return to<br />

Forever IV, but also many, many others.<br />

This year we will again present a carefully<br />

selected program, which will satisfy even the<br />

most demanding audience of jazz fans, but also<br />

thrill those who are yet to become fans. From<br />

May to July, impressive names from the world<br />

of music and the jazz greats will again gather<br />

in Rovinj. Their significance is confirmed by<br />

the choice of jazz critics from the renowned<br />

magazine <strong>Jazz</strong>Times, according to whom as<br />

many as seven out of ten performers who<br />

will this year perform at the 2nd <strong>Avantgarde</strong><br />

<strong>Jazz</strong> Festival are included among the ten best<br />

musicians in the world!<br />

In this year’s fifth edition of the MCM we will<br />

guide you through the Festival program, but<br />

also numerous other interesting events in the<br />

destinations of Rovinj and Vrsar which have<br />

been prepared for you. Thus we would like<br />

to invite you to visit the hotels, our last two<br />

investments, which represent a turning point in<br />

the tourist offer of Rovinj: the Hotel Lone, the<br />

first design hotel in Croatia, proclaimed as one<br />

of the best new hotels in 2012 by the American<br />

magazine Conde Nast Traveler, and the Hotel<br />

Monte Mulini which has recently become a part<br />

of one of the greatest world organizations in<br />

luxury hotel industry The Leading Hotels of the<br />

World.<br />

Hoping that MCM will become your guide<br />

through the destination, I wish you a warm<br />

welcome!
