The 360 members of the Mormon
Tabernacle Choir represent
men and women from many
different backgrounds and
professions and range in
age from 25 to 60. They
reflect a medley of unique
lives and experiences and
are brought together by
their love for singing and
their faith. Their incomparable
voices are the common chord
that unites to form the
choral group known all over
the world as the Mormon
Tabernacle Choir.
The Choir has appeared at
13 world's fairs and expositions,
performed at the inaugurations
of five U.S. presidents,
and sung for numerous worldwide
telecasts and special events.
Five of the Choir's recordings
have achieved "gold
record" and two have
achieved "platinum
record" status. The
most popular was the Grammy-Award-winning
1959 release of "The
Battle Hymn of the Republic"
with the Philadelphia Orchestra.
