Panorama battle royale tonight

But all eyes will be on Pan Elders Steel Orchestra that will be going for the beaver trick. At the Savannah Party two weeks ago, the band was considered by most to have given the performance of the event.

They won the semi final in gran fashion, beating the second placed steelband by nine clear points.

Tonight the band will be playing in position eight, Roti and Talkarie arranged by Duvonne Stewart, and another wonderful performance is expected. However the real battle will be in the large band category as 10 points separate the first seven bands going into the finals. Reigning National Panorama Champions Desperadoes will be on first in the large band category, and will play a Carlton”Zanda”Alexander of Good Morning, the band that placed second to them by one point after the semi final, Massy Trinidad All Stars, will play Full Extreme arranged by Leon “Smooth” Edwards in the penultimate position.

Third placed bp Renegades takes the stage in seventh position and will play s Duvonne Stewart arrangement of Good Morning.

PCS Nitrogen Silver Stars with We Are Conquerors arranged by Liam Teague intends to up their ante and position tonight, while Republic Bank Exodus will closed off the competition with Good Morning arranged by Pelham Goddard and Terrence “BJ”Marcelle, and they too are noted to big final night performances.
