This course will be a continuation of the community band called Panning For Gold. We welcome former and new students willing to learn how to play the steel drums, AKA "steelpan," the Caribbean instruments from Trinidad and Tobago. This course does not require any prior musical knowledge and is open to any level of musicianship, even if you haven't played an instrument before. You will learn the history of steelpan, basic music theory, and how to play in an ensemble setting.
Required Materials: Sticks will be provided by the instructor. Students will need to bring a binder or folder to hold their music, and a writing implement.
