WITCO Desperadoes is proceeding full speed ahead
with its preparations for Panorama 2007.
Desperadoes' tune of choice is the Amrit Samaroo
composition, Band from Space.
Robert Greenidge has returned to arrange for
Desperadoes this year. Band member Andre Robley and
former Captain Curtis Edwards have been the "in
house" arrangers since 2006 and began work on the
Panorama arrangement some weeks ago.
Greenidge has arranged three successful Panorama
selections for Desperadoes in the past. He is an
accomplished musician and travels the world playing
steelband music.
Greenidge is a son of the Laventille soil who has
been with Desperadoes since the 1960s first as a
player and later graduating to the position of
arranger. The exuberance in Laventille is already
apparent following this partnership.
