University of Orange’s Music City program is piloting a Steel Pan Youth Ensemble in Autumn 2023. We’re in the planning stages, working alongside steel pan musician Jevaun Grant and local parents.
The pilot program will be focused on youth and will be free to attend. We’re currently raising $25,000 to purchase 7 steel pans from Federico Steel Pans in Trinidad and fund the pilot program.

We are building a longer term vision for a Community Steel Drum Orchestra of the Oranges. Get in touch with us at info@universityoforange.org if you’re interested in helping out!
