Potential Symphony Steel Orchestra will enter the 2020 National Panorama competition with the names Carlan “Panman” Harewood, Kareem Brown and Amrit Samaroo on its banner.

Potential Symphony will campaign in the medium category with Sparrow’s All them Tobago Gyul arranged by Samaroo and Brown as the drill master.

The band was formed back in 1965 as Eastside Symphony and had a fair run in the Panorama competition having placed in the finals on numerous occasion.
