THE Black Country Living Museum will be alive with the sound of music as an exclusive jazz extravaganza will be held.

Top national and international jazz acts will gather at the Tipton Road museum on Saturday July 11, and will feature The Nomy Rosenberg Trio, Dave Moorwood's Rascals of Rhythm and home grown talent including Arthur Brown's Jazz Band and Dennis Mowatt's Dixie.

Visitors can also follow in the footsteps of the 1920s' flapper as they discover the delights of the Charleston with a lesson from the Woodland School of Dance in the Workers' Institute.

Thoroughly modern Millie's can strut their stuff as the flappers will be dancing the night away, putting visitors through their paces in the Black Country Living Museum's own version of 'Come Dancing'.

Museum spokesman, Fiona Carding said: "The evening promises an unforgettable night of music and memories and is a perfect evening out for all the family. The Black Country Living Museum provides an extraordinary venue for this showcase of talent and its rapidly growing reputation on the jazz circuit grows stronger by the year."

Tickets cost £12.95 for adult, £10.50 for seniors and £6.95 for children.

All places must be pre-booked in advance with tickets available from the Museum's booking office on 0121 520 8054.

Gates open at 6.30pm and close at 10pm.
