Staff Article
Interview Recorded: February 12, 2006
We are at the Queens Park Savannah where the Panorama Semi-finals is taking place. Many of the bands are already here and anxiously awaiting their turn to perform on stage. We are interviewing some of the movers and shakers within these bands to share a general idea of what goes on behind the scenes. We are here with Mr. Curtis Edwards, Captain and Arranger of Crescendoes Musicale.
TRINBAGOPAN: Mr. Edwards, how has Panorama 2006 been for you all so far?
CURTIS: We are enjoying it.
TRINBAGOPAN: Do you all have any plans after Carnival?
CURTIS: We have a children's program that we do after the Carnival. We didn't have a home for the band before, but we now have a lot size piece of land that we are using. We hope we will get to keep it because we have a successful program in the area to give back to the community. We also have the Musical Festival and Pan in the 21st Century Competition coming up.
TRINBAGOPAN: What song is the band playing today?
CURTIS: 'Boogsie's' tune, 'This One's for You, Bradley'.
TRINBAGOPAN: Could you give us a little insight about the arrangement?
CURTIS: The arrangement is all around Bradley. I have a little mixture of his tunes like 'Rebbeca' and so on just to remind him. Also, a hymn for Zion Children to take him home.
TRINBAGOPAN: Thank you sir.
