Today, the National Steel Pan Orchestra as well as The TCL Skiffle Bunch Steel Orchester played tonight at the Skiffle Bunch pan yard tonight.
Here is a brief history on the group. (Feel free to check there website as well.)
Since 1977, The TCL Skiffle Bunch Steel Orchestra has been the leader among Traditional or 'Pan Around the Neck' groups in Trinidad and Tobago. In 1993, having matured through this rewarding and illustrious apprenticeship,they donned Conventional Band Status and have since challenged the very best in that category. As a prelude to this status and broadening their cultural horizons into Indian Music categories as well; they entered as a Convention band and placed 6th in the first ever Pan Ramajay Competition in 1989 and came 2nd in the Hindi Nidhi Competition of 1990.
Tonight was just amazing. The blissful melody of of every beat joining together to create such delicate sound. It is something you have to experience for yourself.
Don't worry you will find me playing for panorama next year.
