“We have to start to treat music like theatre. Treat it in the sense where we can have people understand, visually what you doing musically.” ~ Duvone Stewart. The excerpt, extracted from The Man Behind The Music demonstrates, in his own words, the context and relevance of the relationship succinctly from a metaphorical and literal sense. Duvone is truly a musical artist extraordinaire!!! Blessings!!! 🙏🏽

You nailed it. The essence of what we need to do and Duvone is totally correct..

2018 Renegades Arrangement, was one of the best arrangements I’ve ever heard in my almost 13 years of steel pan. And I must say, Duvone’s aim to tell his story through the song really worked. Because I didn’t know until now, that whole arrangement was for somebody that he lost. Duvone’s really a GOAT for this one.

Untold stories, unheard songs. The media needs to be liberated, before we can be free. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely beautiful film, congratulations to the whole production team!

A really good insight into Duvone's musical journey and his thoughts and feelings throughout. A documentary that has been well done and one I've been anticipating 😅👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Great job everyone! Brilliant Duvone 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾

Thanks for the support. Parts 2&3 on the way. Look out for the link later this week.

This is also a LIVING FACTUAL EVIDENCE of the Power of a MISSION STATEMENT in all we do in Life. BTW Mr. Stewart explaining why it was done and the purpose it served the ENTIRE Orchestra bought into it and well the result speaks for itself. Fantastic historical facts❤

What a man of resilience!! What great lessons. Way e was sent to Lyft him up, to help him in his mission. I felt this deeply, however and still we Rise, he rises, Wayne rose to every challenge in his life. Bravo to both men🙏🏾👍🏾👏🏾❤️

Somehow it is through deeply painful experiences the most beautiful creations find their way into our lives. Thank you to our ancestor Mr. Alleyne for what his life and death birthed in the life of this amazing creative being Mr. Duvone Stewart. I bow to you both with deep gratitude.

Thank you for watching and your comment. Please share the link, to share the experience of this moving story.

I am a Bahamian, I have watched pan videos starting from 2017 what you guys do down there is amazing! This mini documentary gave me chills from start to finish. Amazing story and an amazing man with so much to offer the world. Definitely need a pt 2

Now i understand why I'm a huge Duvone fan and a Renegades fan 4 life! I grew up on the East Dry River, Observatory street, in the early 60s. I also pushed pan for Renegades in those days and never was a fan of any other band. I also went to Nelson Street Boys when it was the vagabond school in town! This story touched my heart & soul and when I saw their finals with Year For Love, I couldn't see any thing that was close in 2018! Respect.❤

Duvone is a boss!

it is said that "Life imitates Art", but in this case, Art reflects Life. This interview of Life, Love, Pain, Courage, Music, and Perseverance through Pain! As I reflect on my time coming from Tobago and living with my Godmother on 16 Nelson Street, this story touched my heart. Well done to the producers for bringing this story to light. Looking forward to Part 2. Stay strong Duvonne!

What an amazingly well done film, about a genius of our music, our pan … love the band, the music, the man behind it and this presentation. Well done Mark Loquan! Stay strong Duvone and Renegades …
