Congratulations to Dr. Len “Boogsie” Sharpe for receiving such great honor. He is a super great Pan player and an excellent panorama arranger. May he give GOD ALMIGHTY the glory.

[CARLYLE HOULDER]

The magic and beauty of our instrument as only our NEW Dr.Len "Boogsie" Sharpe can demonstrate.Boogsie has proven that the instrument can be played like a piano, whereas other instruments that are incapable of playing harmony are limited to melodic playing. The pan can play a melody and accompany itsel fwithin a strict pulse or beat, not entangling the measures/bars. If this music is written it will certainly be difficult for a musician to play on the fly. Congratulations on this achievement Bro.
