Sonatas - Pan in New York 2010 - Cool Down Special

New York, USA - With the continued objective of providing the New York steel orchestras with the finest recordings ever - Basement Recordings again captured a few of the panorama-bound steel orchestras in their Panyards shortly before the competition with a fidelity and reality that is unmatched.

Despers USA, Sonatas, CrossFire, Sesame Flyers, Pantonic and D’Radoes are all part of the annual Pan in New York special panyard recordings series for 2010.

The recordings, as usual, were all made in the heat of intense  competition mere days before the annual panorama contest.  This year’s recordings again capture the natural sonic majesty of the steel orchestras as only Basement Recordings can.  Basement Recordings has been long regarded as providing the finest digital recordings of steel orchestras and steelpan related music from all over the world.

What was intriguing about the pan yard recordings was that two bands who recorded previously, this year for the first time - went out of their way to achieve a sort of visual uniformity for camera documentation of the session.  The majority of Sonatas' players donned yellow Sonatas' T-Shirts, with a sprinkling in green Sonatas' Tees.  And Despers USA had the bulk of their players dressed in red-themed tops of their choice.

Sadly, the sole orchestra that had been consistent in this regard for a few years up until 2009 - Sesame Flyers - was literally, criminally scuttled this year.  Just a few weeks before the panorama, criminals broke in, vandalized the pan yard and stole the boxes of all their T-Shirts already obtained for their recording session.  Apparently unable to afford the cost of replacing the T-Shirts for their session, this year Sesame Flyers management were not able to provide their players with additional T-Shirts.
