Mormon Tabernacle Choir YouTube channel. Now, the Choir’s music is available to fans throughout the world anytime, anywhere, for free.
The announcement event was streamed live from the Conference Center Theater in downtown Salt Lake City on the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Facebook page.
Special guests welcomed the Choir to YouTube in a special video, including President Thomas S. Monson, Katherine Jenkins, Nathan Gunn, Donny Osmond, Marie Osmond, Tom Brokaw, Michael York, Lindsey Stirling, Edward Herrmann, and the Piano Guys.
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir YouTube channel will feature a variety of content:
- Music videos, such as the one unveiled at the news conference featuring soloist Alex Boyé singing the African American spiritual “I Want Jesus to Walk Me” with the Choir. His portion of the video was filmed on-site in Ghana at the Cape Coast Castle, which was used historically in the trans-Atlantic slave trade. Currently, there are 30 music videos on the YouTube channel with more to come in the future.
- Playlists and popular past performances such as the Pioneer Concert with Katherine Jenkins.
- Music and the Spoken Word is also on the YouTube channel. Music and the Spoken Word is the longest continuing broadcast in the world, first airing on July 15, 1929 in the Tabernacle on Temple Square. Since then, over 4,300 episodes have aired.
- Plus, musical highlights, inspirational messages, general conference music, concerts, and promotional videos
After the announcement event, members of the Choir participated in a Google+ hangout, answering questions about their experiences singing with such a renowned organization.

Cancel replyI always feel angels are singing from heaven when I hear the choir. It is the greatest blessing to have ears to hear the very thrilling music. I hope to sing in a choir like that in the next life!!!!
But for this life, let us rejoice to hear and listen and praise God in our hearts.
Love and adoration,
Ruth McOmber Pratt
Too bad it’s blocked by the church’s wifi network
Michael, which wifi network are you referring to? In a church meetinghouse?
I am trying to subscribe to the web-site. But am un able to as I cannot leave a message or ask aquestion because I do not have a user name or accout number. Each time I try I am asked to open a google account. What might I be doing wrong?
Please help
Bob,
You will need to first set up a Google account to subscribe to a YouTube channel. It’s quick. When you set up the account, you will provide the e-mail address where you want to be notified when there is a new video from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Once the Google account is set up, then you can Subscribe to the choir’s page.
