on Classon Avenue
in Brooklyn, New York. In a musical welcome to the month of August,
little more than one month before the annual Panorama competition in which Despers USA takes part
- Sunday August 1st was the second of a two-day
weekend of Band launches, with Pantonic Steel Orchestra hosting their own
event
the day before.
On
a bright and sunny Sunday afternoon on the 2nd August 2004, when
temperatures reached the high twenties, Trafalgar Square was transformed
into a Steelpan Village. Six of the UK’s top steel orchestras Nostalgia,
Metronomes, Southside Harmonics, Pantasia, Stardust and Croydon entertained
the crowds of visitors, tourists and supporters to London’s refurbished land
mark. 
unmistakable signs
of ongoing construction in the form of a wooden framework loomed in the
background; it was all that was
completed, in what will finally sparkle as the "final cut" of Pantonic's
Steel Orchestra's 2004 rehearsal space/pan yard. This of course in no way
diminished the massive space immediately in front of that area which was
the stage for Pantonic's 2004 band launch activities.
Located at
181 Woodruff Ave
(between Flatbush & Ocean) Brooklyn, N.Y.,
New York's Radoes USA Steel Orchestra
is hard at work at their new pan yard preparing for panorama 2004. Their
tune of choice is
'Whap Cocoyea' by Shadow... Their arranger
is the master, Clive
Bradley...
Located at
621 Classon Avenue
(between Atlantic Avenue & Pacific Street) Brooklyn, N.Y.,
New York's Despers USA Steel Orchestra is
looking to return to their championship ways in Panorama 2004.
