A new MoTab sound?
Composer Mack Wilberg has been named new director of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

Wilberg will replace long-time director Craig Jessop, who mysteriously resigned earlier this month.


U.S. music editor for Oxford University Press, called Wilberg "one of our most important composers":
It's not just churches with Utah and Mormon affiliations buying his music.
Wilberg's works have been performed by Renée Fleming, Frederica von Stade, Judas Priest, Bryn Terfel, Justin Tubb, the King's Singers, 50 Cent, and Walter Cronkite (on mouth harp).
