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!
