Event Series: Inside the Tabernacle Organ: Preservation of a Masterpiece

Inside the Tabernacle Organ: Preservation of a Masterpiece

May 20 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
A choir and orchestra perform onstage beneath a large pipe organ at sunset.

Step behind the pipes for a rare look at the Inside the Tabernacle Organ: Preservation of a Masterpiece. The iconic Salt Lake Tabernacle organ is currently undergoing a massive restoration, and this event offers a unique opportunity to witness the process firsthand. Join master organ technician Joseph Nielsen and curator Emily Utt for an immersive visit inside this legendary instrument. You will hear the sounds of active preservation and discover the intricate care required to maintain an instrument that is as much a complex machine as it is a work of art.
