Panorama 2014 has officially started with the National Single Pan Bands categories.
Come Thursday January 30th, twenty one (21) bands in the Eastern Region will face the judges as they perform their tune of choice at the Arima Velodrome, Hollis Avenue, Arima, from 6:00pm.
First off the starting block is Trinidad East Side Symphony with their selection “Poom Poom” composed and sung by Austin Lyons aka Super Blue. The band is under the baton of Carlon Harewood.
Last year’s winner, San Juan East Side Symphony, will perform at position five playing the Duvone Stewart arrangement of Austin Lyons’ “Fantastic Friday”, while the Arima Panorama Champs, Marsicans, have opted for Chris Tambu Herbert’s “Free Up” arranged by Marlon White. They have drawn number four.
