Tickets on Sale for Mormon Tabernacle Choir Summer Tour 2015 at Carnegie Hall and Bethel Woods

    SALT LAKE CITY, UT, June 20, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Tickets are on sale this week for the highly anticipated 2015 Mormon Tabernacle Choir Atlantic Coast tour. The Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square will visit five cities on the Atlantic Coast next summer -- their first visit to most of the region in over a decade. The tour will include stops in Bethesda, New York City, Saratoga Springs, Bethel and Boston from June 24 through July 6, 2015, and will feature the 360-voice world-renowned choir and 68 members of the Orchestra at Temple Square. The Choir's repertoire will cover everything from Bach and Broadway to American folk hymns and spirituals.

"There is nothing quite like hearing the Choir live in concert," says Ron Jarrett, president of the Choir. "We love going on the road to connect with our audiences on the Eastern seaboard who will experience the pure joy music can bring to the hearts and minds of its listeners."

The 2015 Atlantic Coast tour performances are on Saturday, June 27, at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, on the site of the 1969 Woodstock festival in Bethel, New York. The Choir and Orchestra will then head to the Big Apple for two concerts at the Stern Auditorium on the Perelman Stage at Carnegie Hall. The Choir is no stranger to New York City, having performed there six times previously, the last time a decade ago in 2003.

Since its first tour outside of Utah in 1893, the Choir has toured extensively across the United States and abroad. It has performed throughout Europe and in music capitals from Israel and Russia to Japan and Australia. Its travels have also included performances at the inaugurations of six U.S. presidents. A full complement of the Orchestra has traveled on tour with the Choir since 2005. The all-volunteer Choir and Orchestra usually tour every other year since all of the performers must take vacation time from their jobs and leave their families to undertake the travel.

The 360-voice choir, accompanied frequently by the 150-member orchestra, can also be heard weekly as part of the Music and the Spoken Word broadcast. This 30-minute program is the world's longest continuing network broadcast and currently airs on over 2,000 radio, TV, cable and satellite stations worldwide. The Choir and Orchestra are active recording artists with their own recording label, Mormon Tabernacle Choir .
