The groom is a member of the UWI Panoridim Steel Orchestra so the entire group provided music for a lovely outdoor ceremony and background music for the cocktails.
Their Pan in A Minor was out of this world as were their reggae and dance hall renditions.
The reception was special. The best part was the utter lack of pretensions - it was just family and very close friends. Can't remember the last time I saw folks so happy.

So I went to this fabulous wedding yesterday
In reply to Chrissy
Pan in A Minor has to be one of the greatest pieces of music ever written
In reply to Chrissy
Was it yours?
In reply to ponderiver
I agree - it is a higher level of perfection.

Not likely
In reply to ponderiver
Kitchener composed big band tunes and then put them to a calypso beat. His music will song good in any genre!!

the only thing better than a wedding is the bachelor party!
In reply to camos
I suspect you have way more experience on that one - I've never been to one - it's a guy thing.
The emcee was hilarious

My Bachelor Party was nothing to write home about, but my wedding was outta dis world - nighttime looking over the hills of Kingston. Memories are as fresh as the day.

There is something very special and uniquely Caribbean about steel band music.
I am glad you had a great time at the wedding!
In reply to Norm
Yes - and no one has perfected it like the Trinis. We really had a good time.

I definitely concur with what You have stated . Lord Kitchener's forte was his ability to tailor his Calypsoes
and music to Steel Orchestras in Trinidad .
It is this ability that had most
Steel Orchestras play his Calypsoes
" ON THE ROAD " as the result , he
earned the name " THE ROAD MARCH KING
OF THE WORLD ".
His Calypsoes , whether played by Steel Orchestras or Regular Dance Orchestras are noted for their musicality .Long Live the Calypsoes
and Music of this Musical Genius .
