What is a Steel Band? Steel 'Pans' originally emerged in Trinidad and Tobago, based on drumming traditions from Africa and India. By the 1930's the first instruments were evolving, and by 1940 steel bands were making an appearance at Carnival. Since then, the production of the steel pans has evolved technically so that the modern steel pan is a highly responsive and flexible intrument which demands a high degree of skill from the musician. ..Hear a typical mid-size band.
