The kick-off online concert is Wednesday, June 17 at 7:00 p.m. MDT. The weekly streams begin Monday, June 22 at noon MDT.

The music of the organ, like that of the Choir, has the power to bring peace and joy and help people feel closer to God. Watch and listen as the Tabernacle organists share this music in a new streamed series of organ concerts. Now all music fans, church musicians, organ fans, and fans of The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square and Music & the Spoken Word can enjoy the music of the famous organs at Temple Square wherever you are in the world!

Noon organ recitals have been a tradition on Temple Square for more than a century. The current pandemic has halted this tradition temporarily, but now via the internet, the noon organ recitals will resume without an audience but with full COVID-compliant precautions.

The five accomplished Tabernacle and Temple Square organists Richard Elliott, Andrew Unsworth, Brian Mathias, Linda Margetts, and Joseph Peeples will be featured in a new concert series which will be streamed on the Choir’s YouTube channel, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Live Broadcast page, and the Choir website home page. The concerts will be presented three times each week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 12:00 noon. (mountain).

An evening online organ concert will be held to publicize the start of the weekly organ stream. Read more about both events!
