As a bronzed General Washington looked on, a small army of technicians marched onto the Morristown Green on Saturday morning to set the stage for the sixth annual Morristown Jazz & Blues Festival.

Phil Fielding was there bright and early from Mayor Tim Dougherty’s team.  The weather looks good. Bring a beach chair or blanket and plenty of water.

The free music runs from noon to 10 pm. Here’s the lineup:

Noon: The George Gee Swing Orchestra.

2 pm: Bucky Pizzarelli & Friends celebrate Bucky’s 90th birthday.

4 pm: Louis Prima Jr.

6 pm: Teen sensation Quinn Sullivan.

8 pm: Hometown heroes Robert Randolph and the Family Band.
