Summer 2010 - Issue 21	The Official Magazine of The British Association of Steelbands

Cover of Pan Podium magazine, Summer 2010 - Issue 21 Hello,

Summer has arrived in Britain and the warm temperatures reflect Caribbean weather setting the stage for another successful Notting Hill Carnival. 2011 marks the 60th anniversary of the arrival of steelband in the UK.

The Trinidad All Steel Percussion Orchestra’s, TASPO, appearance at the Festival of Britain on the 26th July 1951 proved to be an iconic mile stone for the artform in Britain.

Our revamped website is full of online news, articles, photos and lots more. Further investment in the magazine sees an increase in readership through our augmented distribution network. We continue to pursue our mission of global support and promotion of the artform in conjunction with our universal media partners together with our programme of media development and look forward to another successful decade ensuring that steelpan, its music, musicians, arrangers, administrators and organisations are always at the forefront.

Our busy schedule of events includes BAS/GLA Trafalgar Square Steelband Jamboree, BAS/CAPCA Junior Panorama, National Panorama, Jouvert and Pan on the Road at Notting Hill Carnival followed by Pan Explosion and our Annual Awards Dinner.

2011 will see an increase in events organized to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the arrival of steelpan in the UK. I offer my personal thanks to everyone who has contributed to Pan Podium’s success and look forward to your continued support in making Pan Podium a beacon for the artform.

Our mission of global support and promotion of the artform in conjunction with our universal media partners will continue far into the future. We continue our programme of media development and look forward to another successful decade ensuring that steelpan, its music, musicians, arrangers, administrators and organisations are always at the forefront.

I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has contributed to Pan Podium’s success over the last decade and look forward to continued efforts in making Pan Podium a beacon for the artform.

Pan 4 Life!
