The New York Times (registered trade mark) today has an item listing
featured music in a jazz festival to be held the last two weeks in June.
The following is the closest it gets to OKOM:

"BIX LIVES ON: A BEIDERBECKE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION" (JVC festival event.)
Here's a concert that shines all kinds of light on old music associated with
the great cornetist and composer Bix Beiderbecke: it presents his music
straight, dices it up and rearranges it, and in some cases expands it. Among
the new ideas will be a few Bix pieces arranged for three cornets (played by
Jon-Erik Kellso, Randy Reinhart and Randy Sandke) and several arrangements
of his solo-piano pieces for large ensemble. And with Howard Alden, Wycliffe
Gordon and Ken Peplowski. Kaye Playhouse, 8 p.m. Admission: $40.
