June 29 (Sun.) - Weekend of Music 2025 – Steelpan Concert
The June Weekend of Music presents a steelpan concert by a group named “pansonido” made up of music-loving adults with day jobs in the local society who perform mainly in Nagoya city and other parts of the Tokai area.
The instruments are percussion instruments that originated on the Caribbean island republic of Trinidad and Tobago, which are capable of producing a rich and unique scale of sounds. Sometimes referred to as “the last and greatest acoustic instruments born in the 20th century,” the steelpan instruments come in different types depending on the range of sounds they produce. The band “pansonido” uses steelpans that produce a broad range of sounds from the high octave to low octave range. We hope you will enjoy the pleasant tones of the cheerful Caribbean music they play on their steelpan percussion instruments capable of producing a rich and unique range of sounds!
On this day, there will also be an opportunity for visitors to try making sound with the steelpans themselves.
