In this file photo, Panorama 2019 large band pan yard judging, south central region, NLCB Fonclaire, performs 'Heart ah Love', by Darren Sheppard and arranged by Darreen Sheppard.
SOUTH pannists and calypsonians have welcomed the opportunity to perform in the limited Taste of Carnival events, but are adamant that the price must be right to achieve any kind of balance.
Having been denied the opportunity to work and earn, because of the pandemic, for the past two years, leaders in these two creative sectors want government to talk dollars and “sense” too.
A list purported to be from the National Carnival Commission (NCC) has circulated on social media, though the NCC has denied it is an official list. It includes events apparently scheduled to take place from February 4 until Carnival Tuesday, March 1, at Carnival City, the Queen’s Park Savannah, Queen's Hall, National Library Amphitheatre and Naparima Bowl, San Fernando.
