Cornèr Banca and "Blues to Bop",
for the Seventh Year Together
(30-31 August; 1-2  September 2007)

In a crescendo of quality and mutual satisfaction, we have reached the seventh consecutive year of our working partnership with the organisers of "Blues to Bop", one of the most eagerly awaited musical appointments of the year in the Lugano region. Although Cornèr Banca  presence continues to be discreet, as befits our image and style as a private bank, the local and international spectators who flock to this festival every year now identify us, together with the Lugano Casino, as its main supporter.

A number of factors make us proud to see our name associated once again with this event: its great popularity, the quality of the musicians selected to take part, its cultural value and the dynamism of this kind of performance. But it is also the evidently universal character of the musical offerings and the interpreters that makes us feel particularly close to "Blues to Bop", as Cornèr Banca operates from the heart of Lugano, but always has a window open on the rest of the world and the international markets.

Our sponsorship of this remarkable event has become a part of our tradition, like other similar initiatives aimed to support and promote culture, art and music in our Canton. So, we are not just a bank specialised in private banking, financing and credit cards, but we have also made a major commitment to culture.
