New York, USA - This one will be talked about for ages. Years from now children will ask their grandparents with great intrigue - “Were you there when dem Bandoleros called Sonatas Steel Orchestra from Brooklyn, Crown Heights, descended on the Brooklyn Museum grounds and captured New York?” And thousands will respond “yes, I was there, I saw and heard it all, it is a night I will never forget.” With a blinding flurry of 32 second-notes (demisemiquavers), perfectly synced musical jabs that would make Muhammad Ali blush, mixed in with an overhand crushing right cross, followed by a wicked volley of musical chromatic triplets to the head - plus the dynamic delivery of a visual and choreographed set of body dips, twists and turns, finished off with solid blows to the midsection -- 1-2-3- it was over! Down and out for the count. click for more

  • There was no doubt in my mind who would be the last bands standing Adlib and Sonatas Congrates to the Players of sonatas. This is adlib's arranger (Andre white 19) 2nd year completely composing the tune himself. so this youngster amoung Titans knocked down 9 others this year.WE WILL BE BACK........ "ADLIB 2010"
    • wrong statement andre did not compose the song he arrange it
  • Congratulations to Sonatas. They earned there win and even though i feel like CASYM won and according to the reaction some of the pan world feels the same, I cant be mad because I know that I am proud to lose to a band that is only as good as sonatas. Next year we comin for the title lol
  • Big Congratulations to the No. 1 band Sonatas Steel Orchestra your big win was well deserved.

    Question of the day. who tuned Pantonics pans? I hope the band did not pay that tuner - big bad job and I mean bad in a bad way.
