He said such business collaborations would help strengthen the relationship between the people of the two countries.
He was speaking at the opening of a showroom by Church Organs Ghana limited, sole dealer of Holland made Johannus organs in West Africa, at Labone in Accra.
Mr. Docter commended the founder of church Organs, Kofi Esson and music director Ato Scott-Bennin for taking such an initiative.
Mr Esson explained that the showroom, which would showcase and market the Johannus brand of organs is to bring the best digital and pipe organs to Ghanaian churches and homes and also to reintroduce pipe organs into the sub-region.
He said in addition, the “The Virtuso School of Organs” has been established at the centre to train enthusiasts on the rudiments of playing these instruments.
“Johannus organs stand for perfection, quality and sense of fulfillment. Apart from introducing these masterpieces to the West African market, we also recognise the need to establish auxiliary centres such as school and studio, where patrons can realize the full potential of these instruments.” He added.
He said the centre would serve as a learning place where the general public and musical groups should record true organ sounds.
