Description
A night at the movies is a chance to sit back, relax with family and friends, and be entertained. It’s a treasured pastime, a delightful amusement. But movies can do so much more than merely entertain and amuse. They hold a mirror to our lives. They teach us in visual and verbal parables about the challenges we face together. They tell us through diverse narratives the same venerable tales that have shaped our identities for centuries; stories of triumph, failure, love, adventure, good and evil, mastering ourselves, helping others. And so much of the power in these cinematic stories—the power to inspire, to build faith, and bring us closer to the divine—is conveyed through music.
The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square enjoy a longstanding tradition of performing inspirational music from the movies and the Broadway stage. These musical gems touch our souls, reminding us to value our better impulses, and see the good in others. The music chosen for this recording by The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square showcases the inspirational and faith-promoting power of music with selections drawn from award-winning blockbusters including Avengers: Endgame, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, and the music that inspired the opening theme of Frozen.*
From the dramatic to the sublime, fantasy to history, from epic scorched-earth battle scenes to gentle melodies from the Nordic regions, this sampling of movie music shows that no matter the story, the genre, or style, a night at the movies can encourage the divine within us, and aid us in our quest to believe.
