CONCERTS:
Concerts are what we do best. Typically, in an outdoor venue the orchestra performs three to six 45-60 minute sets with 30 minute to 2 hour breaks in-between. But don’t let that limit your imagination; we are always willing to come up with a new plan to suit your needs. So, whether your event is a summer afternoon in the park, or an evening concert in the Performing Arts Centre, the NLSO is great way to capture your audience’s heart. Booking info.

CLINICS:
Clinics are a casual introduction to the steel pan that can be provided in conjunction with our concerts. They are usually conducted between sets (during breaks) and last for about 45-60 minutes. Clinics allow people the opportunity to dabble & get a feel for the steel pan. Some people realize after a clinic that they are interested in learning more on the steel pan, so for them the clinics are a starting point on the exhilarating journey of learning a steel pan. For others, it is just a light moment, a fun little jaunt out of the ordinary, a chance to stretch their imaginations & try something different. Booking info.

WORKSHOPS:
Workshops offer a group experience in which individuals learn to play several songs on the steel pan. Our standard program for these workshops includes 12 sessions that span the course of 6 weeks. These classes are lead out by a head instructor with individual instructors for each person. By the end of these classes you will have learned to play several songs together with your fellow classmates as a band. Booking info.
