Press Release Summary = St. John\'s, Antigua - Gospel was the primary
genre for the opening night during Moods of Pan
2006 at the Deanery Grounds in the capital of
Antigua.
Press Release Body = St. John\'s, Antigua - Always innovative, creative and pioneering - Antigua\'s Gemonites Steel Orchestra has again set a new pilot in motion for the global steelpan music community to analyze, experiment with, embrace, possibly follow, and implement. Gospel On Pan night was launched as a permanent and significant segment in the Moods of Pan Festival (MOP). The annual late fall three-day festival, now in its eighth year, is already a much-respected music staple in the Caribbean, and has now added an attractive new global appealing lead-off component to its already potent line-up.
Indeed, the Moods of Pan Festival has the potential to become a bona-fide triple threat - with each leg of the festival integrated into the overall MOP philosophy - while retaining independent, but alluring attributes and features that will appeal to a much wider cross-section of music lovers.
