December 3, 2012 | Westminster, VT – The Kurn Hattin Select Choir performed with fiddler, Natalie MacMaster on the first day of her Christmas In Cape Breton Tour. MacMaster is a Grammy Award winner with multiple gold albums and has performed with artists such as Yo-Yo Ma, Bela Fleck and Alison Krause. The sold out concert was at the beautiful Bellows Falls Opera House on Thursday, November 29.

Kurn Hattin thanks concert producer, Jay Craven of Kingdom Country Productions, for arranging this amazing experience for the children. The Kurn Hattin children were very excited about this special opportunity. While waiting for their turn on stage, one of the boys said he had goose bumps.
