The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is an American institution that has entertained audiences for generations. As we celebrate the Fourth of July as a nation, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir will perform patriotic and national music as only it can.

More about the Mormon Tabernacle Choir 
For more than a century, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir has given voice to the hopes, joys, trials and triumphs of people around the world. 

This 360-member chorus of men and women, all volunteers, has performed at World’s Fairs and expositions, at inaugurations of U.S. presidents, in acclaimed concert halls from Australia and Europe to Asia and the Middle East, on television broadcasts, and now on YouTube and Facebook. The choir has even been referred to as "America's Choir," as a result of their high standard of popular choral music.

With their incomparable voices and their shared faith in God, they are a significant presence in the world of music, giving service through song. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is dedicated to the universal language of music that has the power to bring joy, peace, and healing to its listeners. This unique music organization transcends cultural and generational boundaries and brings together people from around the world through stirring music.
