Northern Illinois University marks milestone...
Illinois, USA - From a humble start with a self-taught pannist, the Northern Illinois University (NIU) pan studies programme is now the world’s grand dame of higher education for the 20th-century instrument. As NIU celebrates 50 years of pan studies, it continues to be recognised as the world’s best, with the only master’s programme globally.
The world’s oldest pan music programme, headed by Trinbagonian professor Liam Teague, marked its golden anniversary in a recent concert, with an international audience, including a few people from Trinidad and Tobago.
