EnduranceSteelBand Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Endurance Steel Orchestra is a non-profit organisation that is based in South East London. It gives young people the opportunity to express and develop their musical talent. The musicians' ages range from 13 to 23 and many have a gift for playing other instruments in addition to the steel pan.Endurance was created by Marlon Hibbert, in 2009, with a view to form a band that would actively encourage young people to participate positively in their local community.Although Endurance hasn't been running for long, it continues to build a strong repertoire of calypso/soca, jazz, soul, reggae and classical music, allowing the band to entertain audiences at various types of functions. From birthday parties to weddings and corporate events.Aside from gigging throughout the year, we also give young people the chance to experience performing at the Notting Hill Carnival and various pan competitions.Alongside the main band, Endurance also provides steel pan classes for children at affordable prices. Our main band rehearse on Friday evenings 5-8pm & our junior band on Monday evenings 5-6pm.Please don't hesitate to contact us for further information.07538 288961 (Marlon Hibbert - Musical Director)www.endurancesteelorchestra.com[email protected]facebook.com/EnduranceSteelOrchestraThanks for reading Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/28142-music-in-the-local-community/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
