“The Bradley Years”

The Bradley Years represent the definitive collection of steelband music arrangements and performances for a large steel orchestra. This collection showcases seven classic arrangements from the master arranger Clive Bradley.  Bradley is considered to be the best steelband music arranger ever by many, including his peers.  In addition, the arrangements are performed by one of the finest steelbands in the world, New York’s Pantonic Steel Orchestra. Clive Bradley had a very special relationship with Pantonic.  This orchestra clinched the title of panorama champions five times in seven years - performing Bradley’s musical works.  The performances were captured by Basement Recordings days before, and in one instance, mere moments before they took the stage for the prestigious annual steelband music panorama competition. 

The recordings capture, reproduce and present an unrivalled clarity with sonic realism, of a large steel orchestra fielding between one hundred and one hundred twenty musicians - unlike any other steelband music recordings in its class.   

This body of musical work is a sterling addition for all fans, educators, players, historians and fine music collectors.

“I have also tried to share my belief that music should never be stagnant. Moments of beauty are often created by those willing to stretch (and sometimes burst) the boundaries. That is not to say that complexity is the answer for often the simplest response is the best.

The power of steelband
 

Tobago, W.I. - The massive turnout of Tobagonians and visitors to last week Saturday night's Panorama panyard judging was a demonstration of a people's love for their culture.

From Bon Accord in the west, through Carnbee/Mt Pleasant, Mt Gomery, Buccoo, Black Rock, Patience Hill and Golden Lane, Scarborough to Belle Garden in east Tobago, hundreds of steelband lovers followed the action into the wee hours of Sunday morning.

....There were people of all ages who were part of last Saturday's steel band exercise. Let us not forget the history of the steelband which was very turbulent. There are those on this island who are intent on holding on to a false view that Tobagonians do not appreciate the carnival art-forms. Anyone who had witnessed last Saturday night's pan action would have to dismiss the anti-carnival sentiments out of hand.

At every panyard, the people waited patiently for the pan judges and when they arrived at a particular panyard, they were followed by large crowds.

Pan excellence from South’s 5 big bands

Members of the T&TEC Angel Harps go through their rendition on Monday night during preliminary judging in Chaguanas
 

Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Soca stars Fay Ann Lyons-Alvarez and Baron (Timothy Watkins) delivered a memorable performance of their 2012 hit All Over at the T&TEC Angel Harps panyard during Panorama preliminary judging. Angel Harps is playing the song in this year’s competition. Players formed a conga line and danced their way in and around the pans and gave a superior performance of Clarence Morris’ arrangement of the song before the judges just before 2 a.m. yesterday. It was a fitting end to a night of pan excellence as the Panorama judges visited five big bands at their panyards in areas ranging from La Brea to Siparia, San Fernando and Chaguanas.

“As far as a blessing or a curse, Panorama is probably a bit of both. It certainly is a blessing, having been on this incredible orbit since it began, generating a remarkable intensity within the worldwide pan community. And in Trinidad and Tobago and the Diaspora, as the only pan activity that commands interest among pan people on such a scale, it cannot but be viewed in positive terms.” ...Les Slater

Nightingales think big in ’12
“We thinking big this year!”
 

Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - This is the proud boast of captain and arranger of the La Brea Nightingales Steel Orchestra, Tyrelle Marcelle.

Nightingales is one of the oldest steelbands in the deep south and it has had a turbulent history.

The band first rose to prominence in the 1970’s under the guidance of the late Father John Sewell, but then Nightingales slipped into a difficult period with little funding and dwindling community support.

Things changed with the arrival of Alutrint Limited a few years ago and La Brea Nightingales emerged once more as a force to be reckoned with. Apart from sponsorship of the band for Panorama, Alutrint also sponsored a series of music literacy classes under the supervision of ace musician Raf Robertson, a La Brea son-of the-soil.

“So many people have never set foot in a panyard...why? Because of the stereotype. The steelpan culture is one of the most fascinating subcultures of the Afro-Caribbean experience and should be treated as such. The music is the anthem of the experience, and, on a larger scale it reflects a significant part of our history and artistic growth as a nation. This year we celebrated and mourned, that's what the music will do as well.” ...Etienne Charles

“Well if the judges aren't satisfied, I can't win. It's simple as that. Panorama is, was and will always be a competition that has to be judged. The judges job is to award points that reflect their opinion of a piece of music. If I didn't get 100 out of 100, I want to know why. They better see me something other than just points and a "Good Luck" or "Happy Carnival" on that score sheet. I can't stand seeing comments that constantly say "Good", but points that say 18/35. Tell me where the other 17 points gone... or why it wasn't "Great."

Sixty Years After TASPO, Ellie’s First-Hand Replay
by Les Slater

TASPO in Great Britain
 

Global - This was a 1951 happening, definitely not of the “incidental” or “forgettable” variety – not for the steelpan world, not for the world of music, period. No, nothing of the sort for the experiment known as TASPO, the Trinidad All-Steel Percussion Orchestra (reportedly, Tobagonians had some issues with that name and that no player from Tobago had been selected, and vented their displeasure in lukewarm or non-existent support during the public drive for funds for the TASPO mission). Notwithstanding this, off TASPO went in July of ’51 to the U.K., primarily to appear in the Festival of Britain, the first representative group of Trinidadian panmen to take the steel band message well beyond the island’s shores.

So 60 years later, here’s Ellie Mannette, West Virginia University’s (WVU) resident steelpan guru, lucidly recalling the TASPO saga as if this were a last month occurrence. “It was the opening of the gates for steel band around the world,” Ellie is saying.

Who Am I?  A Breakdown Of George “Sonny” Goddard’s Accomplishments
 

Forty Years in The Steelbands - 1939-1979 - book coverGlobal - Steelband performers in Trinidad and Tobago (steeldrum’s birthplace) since 1950, have been represented by three organizations: the Steelbands Association, the National Association of Trinidad and Tobago Steelbandsmen (NATTS), and (now) Pan Trinbago.

One man served as the head of all three. George “Sonny” Goddard (1924-1988).

He is the only president of any of the three organizations to be re-elected to the post, not once, but (at least) ten times!

In all, he served as steelbands’ leader during the years 1957-1959, 1962-1971, and 1978-1979.

“Clive Bradley coming through clear in the wind on the hill in the year of the Cocoyea. He said he never had full control as an arranger for Desperadoes. They never told you such and such but you knew there was a ceiling. So he was never allowed the artistic freedom that he got from Dunlop Tornadoes. Or, Nutones...

“....But I’ve already been in the trenches. Meanwhile, I’d have Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the basketball legend standing by for his shot. Jabbar knows the score. He won’t make a fuss about following Boogsie,”   Dalton Narine.

Steelbands get help to prepare for season
 

Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Both panmen and management of 48 unsponsored steel orchestras (single pan, small, medium and large) received donations from Scotiabank to help in their preparation for Carnival and the Panorama competition.

The donations are given through the Scotiabank Foundation, which is dedicated to the development of youth, environment, sports and culture. The event took place at Scotia Centre, Park and Richmond Streets, Port of Spain, on Wednesday evening.

But despite this donation, steel orchestras are still finding it difficult to make it; earlier this week, 165 bands received sums of $10,000 (single pan) and $20,000 (conventional) from the Ministry of Arts and Multiculturalism in their preparations for the Carnival season.

...."An arranger for a single pan band is $15,000; for a conventional, it runs from $40,000 to as much as $60,000."
