Japan - PANPLE plays an active part as a steelband in Kansai Region,
Japan. In the beginning, our band had only a few members. We were so
moved by Caribbean Magic when they came to Japan. We had no sponsor,
no funds, and not enough musical instruments for our band. But we
always had our dreams and goals. We played anywhere to buy
instruments with our performance income. We are still a small band,
but we have grown big enough to play at the Japanese Pan Festival.
Panple hopes to teach the steelpan to China and Korea so that a lot
more Asian people will begin to play the steelpan. Panple at Nagata
Latin music street playing War. [enter Stage 1]
