2019 “Pan Is Sweet” HuPanitarian Awardees

New York, USA - Brooklyn Steel Orchestra (BSO) again showed and displayed uncommon reverence through its HuPanitarian Awards for four of Pan’s finest contributors to the steelband art form. This year the distinguished honorees were four New Yorkers whose personal sacrifices and commitment have impacted much on the shaping and sustaining of the New York landscape of steelband, with far-reaching global impact.

This year’s awardees are Junior “Man” Samuel (D’Radoes Steel Orchestra), Clement Franklin (Despers USA Steel Orchestra), Jean Mayers (ADLIB Steel Orchestra), and Claudette Baptiste (Women In Steel). Again, these individuals have quietly, but with extreme effectiveness, put substantial years of dedication, blood, sweat and tears into forward progress of the music and culture of the steel orchestra in the USA.
