Performing August 28, 2024 for the Lantern Procession — The Carnival Band
Performing from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m., many of the Carnival Band’s favourite tunes are originals by band members. The remainder of their monstrous repertoire includes samba, calypso, swing, afrobeat, jazz, funk, disco, and traditional music from around the globe.
The band believes that community music is grounded in collaboration, with the aim of empowering the individuals involved. Songs and performances are a means to creative expression and community cohesiveness, rather than an end in themselves.
If you have a desire to learn and perform, they can help make your dream come true. Some instruments are available for loan, and some of the band members teach music professionally. They do this because they love it, and because it makes the neighbourhood smile!
