"In the Panyard" Film and Performance at The Museum of Making Music in Carlsbad

sdIRL Connections in partnership with The Museum of Making Music will host a screening of “In the Panyard,” produced by Keli Ross-Ma’u, followed by a special steel pan performance. “In the Panyard” is a documentary about Ross-Ma’u’s musical journey as he studies and performs with the Pamberi Steel Orchestra in Trinidad, the birthplace of the steel pan. This documentary gives an insider's experience of playing the steel pan in Trinidad, and discovers the community bond that is created through music in the Panyard. After the film, Ross-Ma'u will perform original music focused on the sound of the steel drum in different genres, from classical to Latin jazz and more. Visit www.sdirl.com
