Summary
The Tabernacle Choir celebrated the historical reference point of 5,000 episodes of the “Music and the Sposed Word” program and announced unpublished tours in Brazil until February 2026.
One of the most traditional and respected choirs in the world has just reached a historical milestone: he celebrated the 5,000th episode of the “Music and the Sposew Word” program. The tabernacle choir of the Temple square, with over 150 years of existence, celebrates the longest continuous transmission in history, in the air since 1929. The result occurs months before the expected tour of Brazil, scheduled for February 2026.
Recorded in the United States, the commemorative episode brought together over 11,500 people in the auditorium in which the attraction is traditionally held. The event was entitled to Preshow, a special transmission of 30 minutes and moments of great symbolic load. Among these, the execution of the “The Morning Breaks”, present in the first edition of the program, and a regency of “High on a Mountain Top” with the same witness used in 1929.
For Michael O. Leavitt, president of the choir, the occasion represents much more than one number. “It is a lighthouse of peace and light for the world,” he said. He underlines the role of the program as an instrument of inspiration in troubled times, offering a unique combination of music and messages of hope.
Transmitted by over 2,000 radio and television stations, “Music and the Spendate Word” today reaches about 6 million public in over 50 countries. The digital presence is also expressive: the episodes are published on YouTube and social networks, with Portuguese subtitles, Spanish, English and French – which strengthens the global connection of production.
The tour in Brazil in 2026 promises to be one of the main cultural events of the year. In addition to the musical excellence and the emotional force of its presentations, the tabernacle choir brings the tradition of a coral formation that crosses the generations, remaining relevant over time. The unprecedented visit to the country is surrounded by expectations and should attract thousands of admirers of coral and symphonic music.
