On Nov. 22, the third performance in the Lakes District Arts Council's 'Pieces of Eight' season takes place at Lakes District Secondary School (LDSS). Victoria, B.C. tenor Ken Lavigne and his band will present 'The Road to Carnegie Hall'. Ken will take you on a riveting journey, retelling his dream of singing at Carnegie Hall with the New York Pops. The show is a little bit of Frank Sinatra or Michael Buble, a little bit of Luciano Pavarotti and a bit of Elvis thrown in. The evening will include pop standards, operatic selections and some surprises. Tickets are available for this performance at Process 4 circle arts Gallery (250-692-3434) and at the door. Look for our posters around town, and our ads in the Lakes District ÑÇÖÞÌìÌÃ. To find out more about Ken Lavigne, check out his website at http://www.kenlavigne.com/
