My daughter and I attended a few of the sessions in Norman.

My daughter enjoyed Andrew Firth. I agree; he was very entertaining and
knows JAZZ like few people today.

We also enjoyed Gigliotti <<WOW>>, Lawrie Bloom from the CSO, and Mssrs.
Scott and Gilespie from Univ of No. TX.

The exhibit room, our first ever trip to something like this, was a CANDY
STORE for both of us. OUR EYES WERE WIDE OPEN.
