2025 Workshop Update:

Greetings Steel Pan players and Percussionists!  If you are looking for the opportunity to travel and play music again, please join us January 2025 on the beautiful island of Saint Lucia for the seventh-annual Laborie Steel Pan Workshop with one of the greatest artists of steel pan, Andy Narell.  

This is your chance to explore, learn, relax, rehearse and perform with a steel band in the coastal village of Laborie, Saint Lucia; home of the 2017 Saint Lucia Panorama Champions, Laborie Steel Pan. Swimming at beautiful Anbakoko beach in Laborie is highly recommended. 

The workshop consists of classes and excursions organized around daily rehearsals with Andy Narell and social events with the Laborie Steel Pan members over the 11-day workshop culminating in a collaborative community concert performance featuring the workshop participants and Laborie Steel Pan.

For now, we would like to know if you want to come so we can begin the process of booking accommodation and planning transportation for excursions.  We have a limited number of participant spots available as always, so register now to reserve. 

Email: cjasonkoontz@icloud.com to reserve your spot to participate in the 2025 Laborie Steel Pan Workshop.

We hope to see you in Laborie!
