At 74, Elton Santana of Tabaquite fondly recalls a cherished moment in Trinidad and Tobago's parang history as he performs a tribute song dedicated to the late parang legend Henry Perreira at his home.
Santana, a member of the Los Reyes Parang Band, immortalised Perreira's achievement after the celebrated parang singer triumphed over Parang Queen Daisy Voisin in a competition in 1976.
Nearly five decades later, Santana continues to keep the memories, music and legacy of the nation's parang pioneers alive through song.
