A Century of Organ Music at Tabernacle | Salt Lake City News
Description
For over 150 years, the Salt Lake Tabernacle has echoed with daily organ recitals — a beloved tradition that began as impromptu performances and now draws millions, offering solace, beauty, and connection through hymns and classical music. Even during the pandemic, these free noon and afternoon concerts streamed live, bringing comfort to hearts across the globe. Organists like Richard Elliott, who’s played for three decades, share how music bridges grief and joy — like the man who returned to hear his late wife’s favorite piece, finding peace in familiar melodies. With world-class acoustics and a unique challenge of playing amid sound reflections, each recital is a testament to musical devotion and enduring human spirit.
