Steelpan On The World Stage: Adam Bartholomew On Harvard And Homecoming

Trinidadian musician, composer and storyteller Adam Bartholomew, along with Elizabeth Bennett, joins us in studio to discuss the inaugural visit of the Harvard College Steelpan Ensemble to Trinidad and Tobago and their free public concert tonight at Theatre 1, UTT Campus/NAPA. A co-founder of the ensemble and a student balancing science at Harvard University with music at Berklee College of Music, Adam reflects on bringing steelpan into an international academic space, the cultural exchange created through the ensemble, and the significance of returning home. The conversation also highlights what audiences can expect from the performance and the broader impact of showcasing steelpan on a global educational stage.
