**Seventy-five years since the sound of the steel pan arrived in the UK, a suite of new commissions celebrates its heritage and horizons for *Steel Scenes*.**

As part of the 1951 Festival of Britain, The Trinidad All-Steel Pan Percussion Orchestra (TASPO) performed in the UK for the first time – forever changing the DNA of British music.

Since then, the steel pan instrument has been a symbol of innovation and community-powered creativity. As part of Steel Scenes, Steel Pan Reimagined dives into the musical legacy of steel pan music and cements its central place within the global pantheon of genre-defying music.

Working with a fusion of different disciplines, from classical to jazz, the show illuminates the true dynamism of the form and cements steel pan music’s place in the centre of the modern, genre-defying musical landscape.

The evening features world premieres and new works. Composers include Nabihah Iqbal, Delphina James, Soweto Kinch and Marlon The Pannist, with more acts still to be announced.
