"Ustuu-Khuree" Festival Organizing Committee has determined the new dates for the festival. It will be held for the 12th time in Chadan in July, 5-8.

The festival which has become a prominent event in the musical life of the Siberian region and of late has acquired an international fame due to the contribution of numerous foreign performers taking part in it, takes its name after the unique buddhist monastery constructed near Chadan in 1905-1908 with the help of Tibetan lamas. Over decades it had been one of the most significant spiritual and cultural centers of Tuva till it was ruined in the 30ties of the last century alongside with the 30 other Tuvan khurees.

Festival “Ustuu-Khuree” is a mixture of all trends and styles in music from classical and jazz to folk and avant-garde. The stage of the festival is open for all musicians, where everybody is equal – a “star”, crossing oceans in order to see wonderful Tuva Republic in not less exotic Russia and an enthusiast, playing in local clubhouse. You can meet the last Russian pank and 6-year old performer of deep-throat singing from Mongun-Taiga, situated on the borderline with taiga. “Ustuu-Khuree” is a Mecca for piligrims. This festival is a kind of trophy trip for everyone, who decided to come here. For them this is the way for “renaissance of spirituality”.
