Join us in congratulating Our Music Educator Ashley Murray for being a recipient of the Caribbean American Impact Awards
presented by Caribbean Life Newspaper
The daughter of a Trinbagonian calypsonian, prominent musician and music teacher, Ashley Murray has been exposed to music from an early age. She began playing the guitar and recorder at the age of 6. Then, at age 11, she joined the Signal Hill Secondary School Steel Orchestra in Tobago, under the leadership of Mr. Frank Stanislaus. Ashley unreservedly spent hours practicing the steel pan and teaching and encouraging others to do the same. Academically, she holds a distinction in both Level I and II of the Republic Bank’s Pan Minors Music Literacy Program. She later went on to earn a Bachelor of Science in Information Systems from Brooklyn College. While Ashley did not continue formally studying music; her love for the art has never been far from her heart. Presently, Ashley serves as the Musical Instructor of TropicalFete’s Steel Pan Ensemble. Her passion is a delicate balance between Music and Technology and dreams to surely merge the two disciplines.
