Jazz will flood the city of Norman from today to Saturday during the 28th annual free Jazz in June festival.
The three-day-long festival will attract musicians from Oklahoma and beyond, according to the Norman Arts Council website.
Included in the lineup are jazz artists Larry Coryell, Poncho Sanchez and the Norman North High School Jazz Choir.
In addition to numerous live performances, there will be four back-to-back jazz and blues clinics from 11 a.m. to 3:10 p.m. on Saturday, program chair Jim Johnson said.
In these clinics, people will be able to chat with jazz legends and these musicians will relay music history and provide tips on how to play certain instruments, Johnson said.
“It’s a cool meet-and-greet opportunity,” Johnson said. “You can learn first-hand from a jazz idol.”
