The Symphony is Awesome

Last Friday, Wendy and I went to Abravanel Hall, which is where the Utah Symphony plays. They were playing Edvard Grieg's fantasy music, and it was amazing. After I got past the slow parts where I was dozing off, I really enjoyed it. Their performances are just awesome, I am committing myself to going more often.

Wendy and I enjoyed the symphony, and then I convinced her to go with me to watch the new movie that came out in theaters yesterday, "Jumper". It was a good move. It was interesting to see the difference between sitting down to watch the Symphony, and then sitting down to watch an action movie in the theaters. It was a really good day, I enjoyed watching both shows.

P.S. If you like the Sumphony, on March 28th and 29th, the symphony will be taking music from video games and putting them into symphonic score. They will have synchonized video and lighting as well. I'm excited about it, and if you're interested, buy your tickets now, they will sell out fast.

Music and the Spoken Word

I love the Mormon Tabernacle Choir! They are just the most peaceful, and relaxing choir I have ever heard. Every Sunday morning from 9:30-10:00am they sing in the tabernacle for Music and the Spoken Word, which is a broadcast they have been sending all over the world for over 75 years. It is just amazing, and I'm glad that I only live 5 min from Temple Square and have the opportunity to attend it every Sunday. They sing songs that remind you of the Savior and everything that represents God's love towards men. If ever you feel weighed down by something, just listen to the Choir, and it will make you feel much better.
