Up Close WithThe Mormon Tabernacle ChoirMany a writer has put their spin on the different workings of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and what makes it so distinguishable from all others in the world. I decided to take a different approach. I'll be highlighting stories from a few of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra members. Some of them are well known, but most will be among the many unknowns whose voices and instruments blend to give the choir its unmistakable sound. I’ve asked them to give us a glimpse of one of their most memorable moments serving with the choir. I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I do and gain a greater appreciation for not just the professionalism of each of these members, but their dedication and personal sacrifice working with the greatest choir in the World. My first interview is with Brittany Gardner, a cellist with the Orchestra on Temple Square. Her story in full can be found at http://www.ldsmusicuniverse.com/2011/01/up-close-with-the-mormon-tabernacle-choir-part-i-by-julie-keyser/ How to shape an Album Written by Mark Hansen
I’m just finishing up my third album (or my fourth or fifth, depending on where you start counting), and I’m at the stage where I’m mastering the songs, and choosing the order. There’s a lot of discussion about this, and a lot of theories. A long time ago, I did a lot of focused listening, and I studied how songs are ordered in the big leagues. I made a lot of notes, and much of those things I learned ended up being a part of my selection process. Here are some thoughts.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Wow, never a year seems to go by that isn't significant in some way in my life. From tragedies close to home and heart to personal accomplishments, this past year has seen its share of ups and downs for me. Gratefully mostly ups. One of the highlights for me this passing year was re-working our website www.ldsmusicians.com. I've been part owner for over two years now and not one of us has had the time to update it. Finally this past year I could stand it no longer and began to try updating in earnest. As many of you know that was a bigger project than anticipated due to the fact that our old website went off line for a time and we had to start from scratch.
VISIONI grew up in a pristine valley surrounded by lush green hills forrested with mighty Oak Trees. There is no where on earth quite like it and when I go "home" to visit I'm more in awe than ever that so many of these mighty oaks may be well over a 1000 years old. Yet...they all started from one simple small acorn.
This website is brand new. It's like that acorn I just mentioned...small, but it's potential is endless and if you capture the vision with me you will see it's limitless possibilities.
