Pan Trinbago has extended greetings to musicians worldwide in recognition of World Music Day, observed annually on June 21. The organisation acknowledged the global celebration of music and paid tribute to steelband musicians in Trinidad and Tobago.
This year’s observance follows the recent passage of the National Musical Instrument Act, 2024, which officially declares the Steelpan as the national musical instrument of Trinidad and Tobago. The legislation confirms the instrument’s longstanding role as a national symbol of identity and unity.
President of Pan Trinbago Beverley Ramsey-Moore issued a statement on the occasion. She highlighted the need for continued advocacy and opportunities to advance Steelpan and Steelband music across various platforms.
