On Wednesday, Marilyn Carminio will give a talk, “The King and Queen of Jazz: Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald,” at noon.

A concert, “Songs of the Sixties,” with Jason Liebman on guitar and vocals, Ben Gallina on bass, Matt Kanelos on piano, and Caroline Purr joining in the singing, will be performed next Thursday at 6 p.m. The quartet will offer an hourlong tribute to the songwriters and the tunes of that decade.
