Live Noon Tunes for Lunch at Downtown Library

Do you ever hum softly or semi-whistle while you’re sitting at your desk, working away?  What you need is a lunch time music break. 

Bring your lunch to the Downtown Library Atrium, 300 Park Avenue, on Thursdays in September and October from 11:30am to 1:00pm for a variety of musical styles that will go down smoothly with your sandwiches and sodas.

“A live musical performance can really help break up the day,” said the Metropolitan Library System’s Director of Outreach Services Dana Morrow.  “Not only will the music itself re-vitalize you, but a quick trip to the library and lunch with friends will also help you prepare for the rest of the work day.”

The schedule for Thursday Noon Tunes is:

September 4: Jazz with the Larry Judd Pierce Trio

September 11: Oklahoma Strings

September 18: Folk rock with Buffalo Fitz

September 25: Tony Gonzales and the Norman North High School Jazz Choir

October 2: Jazz with Justin Echols

October 9: The Crosswinds Reeds Trio

October 16: The Celtic sounds of the Suspicious Contra Band

October 23: The Wilson Elementary Strings and Choir

October 30: World music with Arabesque

All performances are free and open to the public.  For more information call 606-3833.

Noon Tunes is co-sponsored by the Friends of the Metropolitan Library System.
