Meet Devon Cumberbatch - Maryland, USA

“I would love for the instrument to be as mainstream as the piano, guitar or violin. It may have a ways to go, being a fairly young creation, but I believe pan can progress, develop and infiltrate music of all cultures. I would love to see it as an instrument for all peoples, and universally accepted. The history of the pan is just as important as the future where it can potentially end up and blossom.” 

Pan is a significant part of her heritage and her story. And within the steelpan artform she experiences her yesterday, today and tomorrow in a real and tangible way.  In an exclusive interview with When Steel Talks -  writer and panist Devon Cumberbatch shares her cross-continental experiences and insight into the Steelband music art form and more.
