Stockholm Jazz Festival
Sting and Kanye West are the main attractions at this week's Stockholm Jazz Festival, one of the city's biggest annual music events.
The festival, which features 41 concerts, runs Tuesday through Saturday. West will perform Thursday, with Sting set to perform Friday as part of his Broken Music Tour.
Some 25,000 people are expected to attend the outdoor concerts on the small island of Skeppsholmen in downtown Stockholm. Other featured acts include Miriam Makeba, Kenny Garrett, the Neville Brothers and Maceo Parker.
Organizers said a smaller jazz festival will be held in Stockholm next month to raise money for the New Orleans Musicians' Clinic, an emergency fund that helps musicians in post-Katrina New Orleans.
