When Steel Talks (WST) extends Happy Birthday greetings to panist Latifa Joseph

- March 10, 2022

Latifa Joseph Happy Birthday to Latifa Joseph March 10th When Steel Talks extends Birthday Greetings to panist Latifa Joseph “In my opinion, Antigua & Barbuda’s steelpan art form has so much potential but it is being stifled. We need to be educated more on the importance of the steelpan art form. I am happy to see that almost every school in Antigua has a steel orchestra. However, I think including steelpan in the music curriculum from the primary school level upwards would help to increase awareness and appreciation. Children are the future of the world and this would be the best place to start.” -- Latifa Joseph Relevant content Meet Latifa Joseph of Antigua

When Sidney Poitier met the Trinidad and Tobago National Steelband in 1964

- January 20, 2022

In Photo from left – Steve Regis, Elton “Smokey” John, Herman Colins, Conrad Hunte, unknown, unknown, Sidney Portier, Hugh Borde, unknown, In 1964, The Trinidad and Tobago National Steelband performed at the Moral Re-Armament Conference at Mackinac Island, Michigan. Maybe it was serendipity that caused Bahamian born American actor Sidney Poitier (1927-2022) to be present at one of the band’s performances while he was visiting his daughter, who was attending the conference. He was so overwhelmed with the music that he insisted on meeting the players. As can be seen in the photo, the meeting brought great joy to Poitier (with pan sticks in hand) and all the musicians.
