Dr. Len “Boogsie” Sharpe with Southern Stars Steel Orchestra during the preliminaries
Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - The conventional small steel orchestra leg of Trinidad and Tobago’s 2023 Panorama competition opened up with a big, big, big bang - when Southern Stars from Siparia with the legendary Dr. Len “Boogsie” Sharpe at the musical helm dropped some science (reality juice) on the competition. Boogsie again reminded the world why he is the legendary Doctor Sharpe and most everyone else is just, well, regular, most of the time.
Indeed the good doctor held a Master class last night, Monday December 13. When others are wobbling and dabbling between major and minor scales or probing through Ionian, Dorian, Lydian, and or Mixolydian modes among others - the doctor went into full Boogsie mode.
