Test your Nordic musical knowledge to win some great Eikanger prizes

Eikanger Bjorsvik have launched their own Easter Quiz — so why not give a go and see if you can win some great band merchandise.

Eikanger
  There are 25 questions to get right...

Eikanger Bjorsvik has launched its own quiz to get people scratching their heads and testing their brass band knowledge during this time of enforced lockdown across the globe.

Round the World

It's a bit of a 'Round the World' test — and will take some research and delving into old programmes and perhaps even a few CD collections to get all 25 questions right.

They told 4BR that some questions are easier than others though — although you may need to look a few Nordic locations up on Wikipedia!

It great fun so why not give it a go — with the winner being drawn out on Easter Monday with the promise a bagful of Eikanger goodies as the prize.
