The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Orchestra at Temple Square / Mack Wilberg

Meeting of Titans: America’s best-loved choir meets the world’s favourite bass-baritone: Bryn Terfel and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir join forces in an inspiring survey of classical, spiritual, Welsh and American folk songs

Bryn Terfel has sold over 2.3 million records worldwide

The lead track, the eponymous Homeward Bound, is a stunning emotional show stopper

Recorded in Salt Lake City in May 2013, this “event” record is set to thrill classical audiences on both sides of the Atlantic – and beyond

Welsh bass-baritone powerhouse Bryn Terfel unites with the historic Mormon Tabernacle Choir (MTC)

Known as “America’s Choir”, and currently the best-selling classical act in the US, this extraordinary American musical institution was founded 166 years ago by American Pioneers, migrating at the time from the Midwest to Salt Lake Valley. Many of the original Pioneers included Mormons hailing from Wales – a connection that Bryn will make through music and song on this popular vocal and choral programme

Features spectacular new arrangements from the pen of the award-winning MTC Musical Director Mack Wilberg

Also features special guests Tamara Mumford and Sissel Kyrkjebø

Repertoire drawn from American spirituals, Welsh favourites, sacred arias, popular hymns and the world of musicals

Prepare for the thrilling prospect of the 360-voice Mormon Tabernacle Choir and a full symphony orchestra, united in song with the acclaimed bass-baritone Bryn Terfel – a unique event and a unique album.
