National Junior Panorama 2010 Music Selections
and Appearance Order
Pan holds the spotlight once again this
weekend as the Ministry of Education, in
collaboration with Pan Trinbago and Pan in
Schools Coordinating Council (PSCC), hosts the
National Junior Panorama.
This time it’s the turn of young panists as
35 junior steel orchestras compete in the
National Junior Panorama at the Queen’s Park
Savannah, Port of Spain, from 9:00 a.m. on
Sunday February 7, 2010.
Junior steelbands, like their senior
counterparts, may select any calypso once
that composition has not been played by the
band in a Panorama competition. Each
steelband shall perform for a maximum of six
(6) minutes.
Participating bands will be judged in three
categories i.e. Primary School (12 bands), Secondary
School (10 bands) and Under 21 (13 bands) for prize
monies totaling TT $697,000.
Trinidad’s youngest globally-acclaimed pan
virtuoso, Professor Liam Teague, will be
honoured at this year’s event. Teague, known
as the ‘Paganini of Pan,’ is the recipient of
a flood of music awards and nationwide
recognition in the United States where he
resides.
In addition to a wealth of pan talent,
patrons will be entertained by Anslem
Douglas among others. Admission is free.
