Lamb of God

April 9 at 1pm

"Lamb of God" is a sacred work by Rob Gardner for choir, orchestra, soloists and narrators. It recounts the events of the final days of the life of Jesus Christ through the eyes of those who loved Him and knew Him best: Peter, John, Thomas, Mary and Martha of Bethany, Mary Magdalene, and His mother Mary.

Handel's Messiah

April 9 at 3pm

In the summer of 1741 Handel was at the peak of his musical prowess, but depressed and in debt. He began setting Charles Jennens' Biblical libretto to music at his usual breakneck speed. In just 24 days, Messiah was complete. Right up to the day of the premiere, Messiah was troubled by production difficulties and last-minute rearrangements of the score. Despite these difficulties, the oratorio soon became a favorite of audiences, with a popularity that lasts to this day. We'll hear a recording by the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square conducted by Mack Wilberg.
