To whom it may concern:

The Jazzystan Festival management team would like to bring your attention and hope to see you at the 2010 Jazzystan International Music Festival. We invite the American Chamber of Commerce to be among our honored invited guests and it is with great pleasure that would like to send some complimentary tickets as well as offer a discount on tickets for members and business association partners.

The Jazzystan International Music Festival is, without exaggeration, one of the most important events in Central Asia, culturally bridging the gap between East and West. Jazzystan provides a path to enlightenment of the mind through music, a total escape from all traditional styles and stereotypes. It’s a spirit of freedom that stays true to its creative independence. The conceptualization behind this idea is to lay a foundation for the love of music and respect for the listeners who open themselves to an incredible flow of wonderful, fresh and elegant energy through a music that knows no boundaries.

Our official partners include: KCell, Samsung, KazKommertsbank, Boutique “Telli”, Air Astana, and The Hyatt Regency Almaty hotel.

The festival will take place on October 1-2, 2010 in the Almaty Towers Ballroom located at 1 Zhandosova St. The music starts at 7:30pm and goes strong until 3:00am.

Please reference the map for more complete directions.
