Steelpan
Sound of the World
The steelpan is a unique musical instrument from Trinidad and Tobago. Made from oil drums, it produces melodious sound by striking its surface with sticks. Originating in the 1930s, it evolved from earlier percussion traditions and is the only acoustic instrument invented in the 20th century. Its vibrant tones are central to Caribbean music, especially during Carnival.
