AngelonaWing Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 As far as I know-----The Choir and Orchestra members are set apart as musical missionaries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelonaWing Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 A Two-Fold Mission “If the people of the Church fully understood the way we work to achieve the mission of the Choir,” says organist Robert Cundick, “I think they would be in awe of the inspiration involved.” According to director Jerold Ottley, the Choir’s mission is two-fold: First, the Choir is to be a missionary, with a special calling to reach out to the world. Almost anyone in the world with access to a free broadcasting system or a record player has heard of—and loves—the Salt Lake Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a beneficiary of the Choir’s reputation.Second, the Choir is to be an ambassador for the Church, with a charge to bring credibility and goodwill to the Church in all areas of the world. It is to “ameliorate dissent and misunderstanding in areas where there has been antagonism toward the Church,” says Brother Ottley.LDS.org - Ensign Article - The Tabernacle Choir—Beyond the “Crossroads of the West†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moksha Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I was thinking that with the continued emphasis on Family Values, that it would be nice for the Tabernacle Choir to sing that old Paul Anka hit, She's Having My Baby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiJolly Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I was thinking that with the continued emphasis on Family Values, that it would be nice for the Tabernacle Choir to sing that old Paul Anka hit, She's Having My Baby.Believe it or not, we do on occasion get adventurous. Like last year, when we sang "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" -- I like the song but our arrangement was, well, not exactly well received. Then several years ago we sang with one of the original "Three Irish Tenors" and he wanted us to sing "Still Haven't Found (What I'm Looking For)" with him -- we tried a Mack Wilburg arrangement but we only sang it once in rehearsal, and that was the end of that.
