Bruce Ham returns to the podium to conduct the Sidney Concert Band for its annual May concert at the Mary Winspear Centre.
Scheduled for May 29 at 2 p.m., the concert takes its theme from Carnival of the Animals by Romantic French composer Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921). Selections include The Lion King, A Circus Suite, and of course Carnival of the Animals, a humouristic suite emulating the voices of various animals.
