One was on Tom Miller. a respected and internationally known pan artist. Tom teaches at the University of Denver and directs the school's steel drum orchestra. It was fascinating to read his story and how he met some of the bigger names in pan. It is a story of passion and perseverance.
We also interviewed George and Ruth Parsons. Their interview was the actual starting point for those Steelband Tales we posted. We will be publishing more in the coming weeks. They too had the same passion and perseverance. Maybe it is something inherent in playing steel pan.
Board member Don Prorak chipped in with a great piece on the importance of balance. - not just musically, but in life as well. I personally enjoyed that one.
All that is left is a little proofing. You can't always trust Spellcheck or your own eyes.
So we continue!!!
