Woman secretly filmed singing and playing piano in cathedral goes viral

A talented singer who turned her back on music has become an internet sensation after being secretly filmed playing a song during a cathedral visit.

Shukrananda Gant, 29, had no idea her spell-binding performance was being recorded when she sat down at a piano and started playing inside Lincoln Cathedral, the Daily Mail reported.

But her proud mum Karen Courtney, 51, was so impressed she filmed her daughter singing her own song, called In The Beginning, and posted it on Facebook.

Incredibly, just 24 hours after posting it on Boxing Day, the video was watched and shared more than 28,000 times by internet users around the world.
