  • The Wedding of Music and Scripture in Leroy Robertson's Oratorio from the Book of Mormon
    Inspired Melody and Chosen Word: The Wedding of Music and Scripture in Leroy Robertson's Oratorio from the Book of Mormon Marian Robertson-Wilson The Oratorio from the Book of Mormon by Leroy Robertson is a dramatic presentation of certain events in the Book of Mormon which are portrayed by key personages and tied together by a compact narrative. As such, it resembles an unstaged opera. Robertson himself described it as “a fresh, new American approach to the greatest, age-old story ever told” and further stated that in this composition he hoped to crystallize the powerful events concerning the prediction, the birth, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, as contained in the Book of Mormon, at a high level of art which would give it [the story] a degree of permanence as a work.1 Brief History of Its Composition The idea for an oratorio based on material from the Book of Mormon was rst planted in Robertson’s mind by Apostle Melvin J. Ballard circa 1919 when this high church dignitary chanced one day to sit by the young violin- toting musician during a ride to Salt Lake City on the old interurban train.2 Although the concept never left him, Robertson was unable to begin serious and consistent work on the Oratorio until the 1940s. It was virtually completed in 1947 and premiered in 1953 by University of Utah choruses, the required soloists, and the Utah Symphony, all under the direction of Maurice Abravanel.3 It was recorded by a local company at that time, and then again in 1961 by Abravanel and his loyal forces under the auspices of Vanguard Recording Society, Inc.

  • The Secularization of the Repertoire of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, 1949-1992
    THE SECULARIZATION OF THE REPERTOIRE OF THE MORMON TABERNACLE CHOIR, 1949-1992 Mark David Porcaro A dissertation submitted to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music (Musicology) Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: Thomas Warburton Reader: Severine Neff Reader: Philip Vandermeer Reader: Laurie Maffly-Kipp Reader: Jocelyn Neal © 2006 Mark David Porcaro ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARK PORCARO: The Secularization of the Repertoire of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, 1949-1992 (Under the direction of Thomas Warburton) In 1997 in the New Yorker, Sidney Harris published a cartoon depicting the “Ethel Mormon Tabernacle Choir” singing “There’s NO business like SHOW business...” Besides the obvious play on the names of Ethel Merman and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the cartoon, in an odd way, is a true-to-life commentary on the image of the Salt Lake Mormon Tabernacle Choir (MTC) in the mid-1990s; at this time the Choir was seen as an entertainment ensemble, not just a church choir. This leads us to the central question of this dissertation, what changes took place in the latter part of the twentieth century to secularize the repertoire of the primary choir for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS)? In the 1860s, when the MTC began, its sole purpose was to perform for various church meetings, in particular for General Conference of the LDS church which was held in the Tabernacle at Temple Square in Salt Lake City. From the beginning of the twentieth century and escalating during the late 1950s to the early 1960s, the Choir’s role changed from an in-house choir for the LDS church to a choir that also fulfilled a cultural and entertainment function, not only for the LDS church but also for the American public at large.

Dr. Madsen has also been teaching at the Chicago College of Music during the summer months, and has toured Europe as a musician on three different occasions. The combined choruses of the men and women’s glee clubs, as well as other students interested in vocal music, are known as the Concert Chorus. This group, directed by Dr. Franklin Madsen and Dr. Florence Jepperson Madsen, has been praised highly for their appreciation of choral singing and the refined quality they display in singing classical and church music. The chorus, accompanied by the University’s Symphony Orchestra, and the organ artistry of Professor J. J. Keeler, presented to an equally enthusiastic audience the famed Handel’s ―Messiah.‖ Dr. Florence Jepperson Madsen shares with her husband the commendation and praise for their accomplishments in vocal music, and is tireless in her efforts to further good music at the University.

The idea to compose an oratorio based on the Book of Mormon first came to Robertson when Elder Melvin J. Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles casually suggested it to him one day in 1919. After his conversa- tion with Elder Ballard, Robertson dedicated much of his time to studying the Book of Mormon and choos- ing sections of scripture to use in his compilation.

    Reviews/149 and practice until you can play this piece decently." It is a common assumption that if you do not push your children, they will never learn anything. Yet how easily we get locked in awful struggles of will with our children, spending huge amounts of wasted energy, building hostility and rebellion. Authoritarian per- sons may not be able to swallow Dr. Landau's policy of loving permissiveness, but this book should prove a cautionary voice for each thoughtful parent. In this affluent age, when people depend increasingly on the beauty and accom- plishments of their children as final symbols of status, we need constant warning lest we exploit our greatest treasures. A MORMON RECORD Lowell M. Durham Lowell Durham received his Ph.D. in composition from the University of Iowa. He is currently Professor of Music at the University of Utah where he previously served as Dean of the College of Fine Arts. He is choir director in both his ward and stake. Mormons know Governor Romney, Billy Casper, Gene Fullmer, and Grant Johannesen. Most have heard of Bach, Beethoven, Brahms. Fewer know of Gershwin, Bernstein, Copland, Bloch. But who can name the Church's only living composer of national and international stature? Better still, how many can walk into a record shop and order the only significant commercially recorded "Mormon" composition of the Church's 137 years and identify performers, conductor, label? The answers: Leroy Robertson's Book of Mormon Oratorio, performed by Utah Symphony and University of Utah Choruses under Maurice Abravanel with soloists and chief Tabernacle Organist Alexander Schreiner.

Musical Compositions by LDS Composers in New York City Library Collections Page -1 of 54 INTRODUCTION Lately, we have been asked about serious music written by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Lat- ter-day Saints (that is, Mormon or LDS composers). Concert artists, other composers, and lovers of music ask us: “Where can we find LDS compositions of quality?” When Mormon Artists Group, a collective of LDS artists in New York, began to look in our public and uni- versity libraries for LDS compositions, we had no idea that we would encounter enough works to fill over fifty pages.
