Summary
Abstract: The African derived music of the Caribbean in the steel band and its emergence in the North American school steel band program continues to expand the World Music experience in music education. The cultural and pedagogical understanding in the rhythm, strumming, and movement in this music culture is an essential educational component for students and teachers in the North American schools. The study of rhythm as communication, inspiration, and creation of Afro-Caribbean music helps to inform the performance practice of the steel band rhythm section or "engine room," improve their strumming and movement, and invite students and teachers to think and rethink their approach to the overall steel band music education.
