Title The Delights of Making Cumorah’s Music Author(s) Crawford Gates Reference Journal of Book of Mormon Studies 13/1–2 (2004): 70–77. ISSN 1065-9366 (print), 2168-3158 (online) Abstract As a missionary in the Eastern States Mission, Crawford Gates participated in the Hill Cumorah Pageant in 1941. Although he loved the music and considered it appro- priate to the Book of Mormon scenes of the pageant, he thought then that the pageant needed its own tailor- made musical score. Twelve years later he was given the opportunity to create that score. Gates details the challenge of creating a 72-minute musical score for a full symphony orchestra and chorus while working full time as a BYU music faculty member and juggling church and family responsibilities. When that score was retired 31 years later, Gates was again appointed to create a score for the new pageant.

Editor's Introduction In recent years, Web sites and other publications have commonly come to include a section called "FAQ," in which the initials stand for "Frequently Asked Questions." It seems that the time has come for me, as editor of the FARMS Review of Books, to answer some "Ques- tions Not Asked"-let's call them "QnA"-the supposed "answers" to which seem to be agitating a few souls in certain circles.l As is typi- cally done with "FAQs," I'll do so in the form of questions and an- swers.
Ricks College Sacred Music Series Come Unto Christ The Conversion of Alma the Younger by Merrill Jenson An Oratorio for Soloists, Choir and Orchestra Based on a Scriptural Text R. Kevin Call, conductor Christian Rauch, tenor (Alma the Younger) David Olsen, baritone (Alma the Father) Sonja Zaugg, soprano (Witness) Lindsay Husted, soprano (Witness) Featuring the Ricks College Collegiate Singers, Concert Chorale, and Symphony Orchestra Directors: Kevin L. Brower, Clyde E. Luke and R. Kevin Call Also at selected performances with the Ricks Mens Choir directed by Kevin L. Brower Ricks Womens Choir directed by Richard W. Robison Logan Institute Choir directed by Duane J. Huff Orem Institute Choir directed by Douglas C. Brenchley Cedar City Institute Choir directed by Ralph M. McAffee St. George Institute Choir directed by Jeffrey L. Ellsworth Salt Lake City Institute Choir directed by Richard L. Openshaw Commissioned by Ricks College Rexburg, Idaho 1999 ABOUT THE WORK Come Unto Christ is presented in three sections with its text based on the teachings and earlier conversion story of Alma the Younger as recorded in the Book of Mormon. His is a story that has been replayed throughout generations of time as men have come to recognize their wrong doings, experience a change of heart, strive to more closely follow the Savior, and then seek to share their new-found joy with others. The oratorio opens late in Almas life, following his own conversion and subsequent calling as the High Priest of the Church of God. We hear excerpts from his teachings to those who, like himself, have accepted Christ in their lives.

TWO QUOTES BY BRIGHAM YOUNG: "If I were placed on a cannibal island and given the task of civilizing its people," Brigham Young reportedly said, "I should straightway build a theatre for the purpose." The second quote was given at the Dedication of the Salt Lake Theatre: Said Brigham Young, "Upon the stage of a theater can be represented in character, evil and its consequences, good and its happy results and rewards; the weakness and the follies of man, the magnanimity of virtue and the greatness of truth. The stage can be made to aid the pulpit in impressing upon the minds of a community an enlightened sense of a virtuous life, also a proper horror of the enormity of sin and a just dread of its consequences.

M E R I D I A N M A G A Z I N E Receive These Things, a New Musical Production Raises the Bar on Roadshows By Sally Johnson If you want to increase your understanding of the Book of Mormon and would like to share teachings from the Book of Mormon with your family in creative way, then participate as a cast or audience member in Receive These Things, a new musical! The purpose of the show is to strengthen faith. Prophets and latter-day characters mingle onstage and grapple with challenges common in both ancient and modern times: temptation, wayward children, death of a loved one, financial hardship, and finding courage to leave home to serve the Lord’s purposes. Them, There, Then --- Us, Here, Now This musical play consists of a series of scenes that juxtapose ancient wisdom and inspiration with modern chal- lenges. Nephi’s broken bow becomes a metaphor for a man who has lost his job. Ammon’s strength to cut off the arms of the robbers reminds a young woman on a date to remove a rude young man’s arm from her shoul- ders. Alma ‘s words while watching women and children being consumed in the fire brings comfort to a mother when her young child unexpectedly passes away. Sariah’s willingness to leave her home behind forever gives an older sister courage to serve a foreign mission, and parents with a wayward son are given counsel by Lehi to turn to the Savior. Inspired by a Prophetic Vision and a Challenge President Benson prophesied in 1988 that he could envision great themes and great characters from the Book of Mormon being featured in various art forms.
