JRH Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 The Chorus followed the introduction of the Forte, and was designed by Kerry Geist. It ultimately "replaced" the Cornwall for some years until the Cornwall was "brought back due to popular demand". The names at that time were, and still are, heavily influenced by the Marketing department. Musical references seemed appropriate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
