Thanks for the comment and the suggestion with the mic. The song is an original and the music sheet will be available in the future from us. I'll let you know. The solo is always an improvisation and we perform with musicians always, never with sound tracks, as you know different combination of musicians will give you different reaction and the same song will sound different all the time. Peace. Bula it up!

Wow! Nice chops, nice delivery! I think this is a unique moment in the pan evolution and you made it happen. Is the sheet music available somewhere? I'd like to obtain a copy. My only suggestion, at the risk of offending purists, is to mic your pan so you can back off the stick pressure a bit and still stay balanced with the rest of your group. Your tuner is gonna love you!

Bula it up!!
