In an effort to upgrade the inventory of musical instruments at the National School of Music, and to afford students access to a high quality of instruments, the Government in 2015 took a decision to purchase two Steinway & Sons pianos – one grand and an upright.

The pianos recently arrived in Guyana, and were presented on Monday to Minister within the Ministry of Education, Nicolette Henry. The Steinway Model ‘D’ Concert Grand piano is to be used for public and national events at the National Cultural Centre, while the Steinway ‘K52’ Upright Piano will be used at the National School of Music for classical piano classes. In her remarks, Minister Henry recognized that while the presentation ceremony was simple it was symbolic.(Kaieteurnews.com/photo: Kaieteurnews.com)…[+]
