Acts on this year's festival bill include Roberta Flack, Ron Carter and saxophonist Tinkea Postma.
Tickets start at 6,500 yen for a lunch time concert or 9,500 yen for an evening performance. Alternatively, day passes can be bought for 18,000 yen if you plan to make sure you do not miss out on any concerts.
