Pan Progress - NYU Steel

New York, New York - Dance, cheers, warm feelings and steelpan music wonderment were the order of the day at the NYU (New York University) Steel Fall concert at Frederick Loewe Theatre - all wrapped into a joyful, professional, educational and entertainment experience. Simply persuasive. And the operable word of the night would be “connection.” NYU Steel connected with the audience from start to finish.

From Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition” to Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time,” and then moving through Rush’s “Ghost of a Chance” and finally ending with Trinidad and Tobago’s calypso stand-out Merchant’s “One Superpower” - NYU Steel channeled the audience on a musical and transcendent journey that truly embraced the travels, history and experiences of the instrument. Yes, the steelpan is a living, breathing entity. Moreover, it was very clear that members of NYU Steel have begun to develop very special relationships with the steelpan instrument and art form.
