Tuva
I am pleased to announce that I will be heading to the distant land of Tuva this summer, to perform solo bass compositions at the Utsuu-Khuree music festival and study Khoomei with master throat singers.
"Ustuu-Khuree – the mightiest Buddhist monastery of pre-revolutionary Tuva - was destroyed in the early 30's , and the priests and monks were subjected to persecution.
"The flame of the lamp of this khuree (Buddhist temple-monastery) has not gone out yet", said His Holiness the Dalai Lama XIV, when he visited Tuva in September 1992.
The festival of live music, Ustuu-Khuree, which takes place in Chadan, is dedicated to the rebuilding of the temple. This year, from 15th to 19th July, this will be a 10th anniversary festival "Ustuu-Khuree", "TuvaOnline was told by the director of the festival, Igor Dulush."

My sincere and heartfelt thanks to Butterfield and Robinson for their generous support of this project.
