Clive Telemaque
Clive Telemaque
has been playing Pan
since 1972 when he was
still a small boy. He
started to play with
Renegades Steel Orchestra
on Charlotte Street,
Port-of-Spain, and then
went onto Trinidad All
Stars in 1973.
Telemaque has travelled
around the world a few
times, visiting places
like India, Africa,
Japan, England, North
Korea, the USA and many
others. He has also
performed in local competitions
in his homeland of Trinidad,
at shows, wedding parties
and other occasions.
He is a past arranger
for St. Margaret Boys
Anglican School, winning
three Junior Panorama
competitions and also
taking the Gonzales
Sheikers to nine Panorama
finals in eleven years.
Telemaque composed a
Calypso some years ago
which was sung by Protector,
who in turn went on
to capture the Young
Kings crown performing
the selection. From
2000 Telemaque began
working with the Carnival
Cruise Line, and performed
as a premier soloist
on the vessels through
2010.
In 2012, in his first
attempt at a “Pan song,”
Telemaque composed
Play Yourself which
was the winning tune
at the Panorama Finals
2012 Large Band category,
performed by his band
Trinidad All Stars.
The 2013 and 2014 seasons
saw Trinidad All Stars
opt again for his talents
with
Bounce and Drive
and
Excitement
when they went with
those tracks as
their tunes of
choice. On the
circuit once more
for the 2015
Panorama season,
Unquestionable is
one of Telemaque’s
music works.
