Duvone Stewart does a semi final double!
It was a double win for Duvone Stewart as the bands he arranged for amassed the most points in both the Medium and Large categories at the National Panorama Medium & Large Band Semi Final & Savannah Party at last evening at the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port of Spain, Trinidad.
Stewart took Pan Elders (defending champions Medium Band) to the stellar position with his arrangement of Samuel “Brigo” Abraham’s “Limbo Break” with 279 points.
bp Renegades performing Aaron St. Louis aka Voice “Year For Love” got the judges’ nod amassing 282 points, four more than their closest rival, Desperadoes, playing the same selection.
Fourteen (14) Medium and fourteen (14) Large Bands faced two separate panels of judges in a steel crescendo…..an explosion of music and rivalry.
