Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Title defender Chord Masters Steel Orchestra maintains its lead after its delivery of champion arranger André White’s ‘Doctor Cassandra,’ at the end of the ’level playing field’ that was the (2023) 2024 Single Pan semi-finals. The event was held at the Arima Velodrome in east Trinidad on Saturday November 25.
San Juan East Side Symphony (arranger Duvone Stewart), and a tie between Newtown Playboys Steel Symphony (arranger Carlon Harewood) and Nostrand Symphony (arranger Sheldon Peters) round out the top three positions going into the final competition. And so these top spots now feature three previous champions in this specific category, vying once more to retake the championship with their respective bands: White, Stewart and Harewood.
