#Happeningnow Steelpan Royale: An Evening of Elegance The steelpan was perhaps the world’s first recycling project unknowingly to the investors in that they used discarded oil drums to make the wonderful product.SteelPan Royale therefore stands as a testament to the extraordinary journey of our national instrument. From humble beginnings to global acclaim, the steel pan has risen to a place of honour and prestige. Its voice has echoed across continents, carrying with it the rhythm, innovation, and genius of our people. Tonight, it resonates at The President’s House, exactly where it deserves to be.Tonight, Trinidad and Tobago celebrates artistry, heritage and above all, we celebrate the pride of our country.🇹🇹#SteelpanRoyale #NationalInstrument #steelpan ...
