Trinidad Guardian
Outstanding performances by female members on the cast contributed, in large measure, to the musical excellence delivered at Classical Jewels X—The Legacy, staged by the Neal and Massy Trinidad All Stars Steel Orchestra at the National Academy for the Performing Arts (NAPA) in Port-of-Spain on Saturday night.
Dedicated to the legacy of the 77-year-old orchestra’s watchwords—discipline, dedication and magnificence—the tenth edition programme’s pieces were selected to pay tribute to its former musical directors. In addition, the occasion was used to recognise the rise of one of its musicians, Deryck Nurse, from pannist to orchestra conductor.
It was midway on the playbill’s first half when adoration and appreciation for the cast’s fairer sex was generated.
