A New Piano!

Posted by Chenter Superadmin on with 0 Comment

Chenter Foundation, in its continuing support of the Nidaros Cathedral Men and Boys Choir (Nidarosdomens Guttekor), has provided the choir an additional grant to purchase a new Yamaha piano! The new piano has a crisp and warm sound, and has been lowered so their conductor, Thomas Berg-Juul, can better supervise the kids during rehearsals. We hope the piano will be a steadfast companion in the kids’ continuing journey of growth and learning.
