Pantonic Steel Orchestral Set to Meet Steelband Music Demand with Critically Acclaimed CD Set.

As expected the recent passing of master arranger Clive Bradley has left a serious void in the steelpan music world. Mr. Bradley rose to global prominence and received critical acclaim through the musical masterpieces he created for the legendary Desperadoes Steel Orchestra in Trinidad, and the New York powerhouse, Pantonic Steel Orchestra. Considered by many to be the world's greatest composer/arranger for the steelband orchestra, the renowned Mr. Bradley created magic and classics that are now required listening for all serious music educators, players, students and fans. Indeed, Mr. Bradley earned the respect of his peers and enjoyed an acknowledged genius level status that few musicians ever achieve in their lifetime. Only Bradley could bring laughter to your lips and tears to your eyes in the same piece.


The result has been a renewed surge in the appreciation and interest in the public desire to acquire this late master's music, as performed by, clearly, some of the best steel orchestras in the world.

The Package - Pan In New York 2002 - 2003 - 2004 - plus 2005

Four years of the unprecedented beauty, clarity, fidelity afforded the listeners by the Bradley/Pantonic/Basement connection are truly awesome music and audio productions. The additional entry of some of the other biggest names in steelband music history makes this offer one of the greatest musical 'steals' of all time. These are simply 'must-have' items for any steelband music listener/collector/player. It is also a key package for music educators as it is an indispensable tool for easy distinction and identification of the contrasting styles of the bands and arrangers, including Clive Bradley. Furthermore, the variations of styles and rhythms in the musical package are essential educational resources for any institution that prides itself on having a world-class music department.


The packaging is truly 'barebones', devoid of the customary artwork and literature - but it is truly worth it. For everything that is omitted in 'niceties' is gained in music and price/value. This package would easily cost well over one hundred dollars. So this barebones package does allow for more of those on a tight budget to enjoy some of the best steelband music in North America. However the cover artwork/literature may be accessed via the web site and printed if truly desired.
