===Steelband soca=== [[File:Steel Pan.png|thumb|Illustration of a steel pan]] [[Steelband]] soca or Pan soca also referred to in Trinidad & Tobago as Pan Kaiso is soca composed for or using [[steel pan]]s which are types of music drums often used in soca and calypso music; it became so popular that it became its own musical genre. This soca style was mostly pioneered by the late Lord Kitchener whose songs have been played by steel bands at T&T's annual Panorama competitions more than the songs of any other composer. The steel pan originated in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago during the late 1930s. Steel pans are handmade, bowl-like metal drums crafted from oil drums so that different drum sections produce different notes when struck. Steelbands are groups of musicians who play songs entirely on steel drums. There are many types of steel pans, each with its own set of pitches.
