Pan excellence from South’s 5 big bands

Trinidad & Tobago Guardian:

Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. -  Soca stars Fay Ann Lyons-Alvarez and Baron (Timothy Watkins) delivered a memorable performance of their 2012 hit All Over at the T&TEC Angel Harps panyard during Panorama preliminary judging. Angel Harps is playing the song in this year’s competition. Players formed a conga line and danced their way in and around the pans and gave a superior performance of Clarence Morris’ arrangement of the song before the judges just before 2 a.m. yesterday. It was a fitting end to a night of pan excellence as the Panorama judges visited five big bands at their panyards in areas ranging from La Brea to Siparia, San Fernando and Chaguanas.

  • It was a musical feast in the South on Monday night, it is  a pity that the JUDGES as usual never reached Siparia until nine 9.pm. It was well worth the wait and Sunday will be "HEAVEN" for real Pan Lovers who go to listen to the music and arrangements each already a winner in its own right

    Every year I have to ask myself if they are trying to totally kill off Pan in the South.  Five bands and it was1.30/2pnm when we reached home.  There is no way that it took them from seven to nine to get from La Brea to Siparia
