Steelpan music was invented in the late 1930s Trinidad, and was brought to Bermuda by a number of groups, including the Esso Steel Band , who moved to Bermuda.
Choirs
Religious choir singing is also popular on Bermuda. Well-known choirs include the Roman Catholic Diocesan Choir , as well as the non-church choirs Philharmonic Choir and Post Office Choir .
