Pan Wizards Steel Orchestra
Pan Steel Wizards Orchestra is comprised of over 30+ players at any given time, highlighting that most recognizable and beloved instrument - the steel drum. The group is made of players from fifth grade to adults, and comes from Steel Magic Northwest in Washington state. The school and group are as much about making good people as the are about making good music! Participants learn much more than just music in the steel band. They develop teamwork skills, leadership through mentoring, an increased sense of responsibility to the group, social skills, and they see on a regular basis the fruits of their dedication. The steel band is different than school band or orchestra in that the director doesn't stand in front with a baton; the students themselves are in front, and therefore have a heightened sense of ownership of the performance.
