JOIN OUR KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN!

We are still fundraising to launch The Epic Project this October 27, 28, 29 and 30 in San Francisco!

Our Kickstarter project must be fully funded ($10,000 USD) before its time expires (Oct. 31, 2011) or no money changes hands!

For those of you who LOVE music from around the world - this is a rare opportunity to see it LIVE and EXQUISITELY WOVEN TOGETHER in 3 different evening concerts in San Francisco at the JCCSF as composed by the featured masters themselves! Come support traditional masters from around the world who still carry "centuries old traditions" in their fingertips!

Four filmmakers are now on location shooting short films of epic singers and historic sites in Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, India and Taiwan -- all of which will be projected on stage to virtually bring these overseas locales to our audiences for The Epic Project. Many of these places, like hidden teahouses in the back alleys of Taiwan, don't even have the right electric wattage to handle the lighting equipment required for the film shoot, requiring the rental of generator trucks, etc. Or take the Tibetan epic of "King Gesar", for example. We have been gifted rare film footage of this incredible epic performed by monks in the remote village of Golok in Tibet, but now need the right equipment to transfer this archival raw footage to a format suitable for the stage...

To ensure that the visual parts of our The Epic Project and the short films being shot on location are being done properly, to ensure that our budget is enough to cover all the legal visas fees, hotel, food and transportation costs of bringing 11 international music artists for 11 days each, and to ensure that our production crew in the theater has enough budget to rent all the proper gear and technology equipment required to pull off this complicated international production project, we still need to raise at least $10,000 USD and ideally $30,000 USD in 3 WEEKS to make all the components of this complex international project come together!

So BE INSPIRED! Spread the word far and wide! Please send The Epic Project link to ALL of your friends and followers! Visit our official website at www.sfworldmusicfestival.org... The Epic Project will be an extravagant musical feast for all the senses! Please contribute what you can and get several wonderful "once in a life time" rewards in return!
