Today's Morning Edition music is from "Over the Rainbow" by Joey Alexander from his 2015 debut album "My Favorite Things."
Alexander is a native of Bali and he's 12 years old. He's one of the acts that will be featured at the 18th annual Twin Cities Jazz Festival, which begins today.
He'll be playing tonight on the main stage in St. Paul's Mears Park, but there are over two dozen venues, mostly in Lowertown, which will host performances over the next three days.
