For more than a century, The Tabernacle Choir has given voice to the hopes, joys, trials, and triumphs of people around the world.
This 360-member chorus of men and women, all volunteers, has performed at World’s Fairs and expositions, at inaugurations of U.S. presidents, in acclaimed concert halls from Australia and Europe to Asia and the Middle East, and on television broadcasts.
The Choir is usually joined by the Orchestra at Temple Square, which was established in 1999 as a companion ensemble. Each week up to 85 musicians, drawn from a roster of more than 200 volunteers, provide instrumental support to the Choir in the weekly broadcast of Music and the Spoken Word, as well as at concerts and on tour. Additionally, the Bells on Temple Square, a hand-bell choir of 32 musicians, can often be heard alongside the Choir during their weekly broadcast and during concerts.
With their incomparable voices and their shared faith in God, they are a significant presence in the world of music, giving service through song. This unique music organization transcends cultural and generational boundaries and brings together people from around the world through stirring music.
Known from its beginnings as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the Choir changed its name in October 2018 to more closely align with its sponsoring organization, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Choir is now called "The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square."
