Biography
Franklyn McIntosh (born 1946) is a St Vincent-born pianist and arranger of calypso and soca music. He is recognized as one of the pioneer music arrangers who helped usher in the soca style of West Indian popular music in the 1970s and 1980s. As a calypso/soca arranger, McIntosh scored out the music parts for the band that accompanies the calypso or soca singer. Melodic lines for horns (saxophone, trumpet, and sometimes trombone) and bass, as well as charts for guitars and keyboards, were written out for use by musicians at recording sessions and on the bandstand for live performances.
