Celebrating the movement from the darkness of the past to the light of the future, it is customary in the Caribbean to have an annual Carnival which starts in January.  The Precipice Community Band Community Band will bring the hot dance musics of the West Indies to Kingfly in their unique, irreverent style, blending Calypso, Soca and Reggae with American dance and pop forms.  Croes, of second-generation Aruban heritage, scored original pieces to be played against images in the background. Croes embraces the stillness of the season with haunting melodies as he moves you through it and into the louder, jovial side of the coming lighter days. 

It’s a one-of-a-kind show with some of the very best jazz musicians residing in the city and not to be missed!
