Desperadoes Steel Orchestra & Robert Greenidge sync for Panorama 2010 “Musical Magnum” makes forceful entry

[Pan Times]

Global - For 2010, Desperadoes Steel Orchestra is going into the ‘Big Yard’ with music written by arranger, world-renowned musician and performing artist in his own right, Robert Greenidge.  Determined to be once again a force to be reckoned with on final night, “Musical Magnum” is clearly the ‘ammo’ of choice as the ‘pride of Laventille’ targets the million-dollar prize and prestigious title up for grabs in Trinidad & Tobago’s 2010 national Panorama championship.

Sung by seasoned songbird Natalie Yorke, ‘Musical Magnum’ marks one of the few times that Desperadoes Steel Orchestra has entered the panorama competition with a Robert Greenidge composition.  Needless to say, they are working towards exactly the same end result as one time before.  In 1991, Robert Greenidge composed and arranged ‘Musical Volcano’ for Desperadoes.  And after that eruption was over - Desperadoes Steel Orchestra was the Panorama champion.

He won in 1991 and 1994, and placed 3rd in 1995 and 1996.
