Do we care about the impact of our actions
on other people or the planet? Carnivalists certainly do! Geared towards those
with an interest in the Creative Arts, this session will provide practical help
and advice on simple measures that extend beyond statutory obligation which you
can volutarily take to improve the lives of colleagues, family, local community
and society at large.
To round up this series of events we are particularly delighted to welcome Geraldine Connor, composer, performer, musical director and vocal animator specialising in mainstream rock and pop, Caribbean carnival, Caribbean folk and African American Gospel, Jazz and Blues styles. Geraldine Connor directed the widely acclaimed Carnival Messiah, her adaptation of Handels choral work to a Calypso setting.
