We received some tragic news this morning that the historic Provo Tabernacle has been on fire since last night and firefighters have been trying to control the fire for several hours.

Late last night a rehearsal for “Gloria” by Lex de Azavedo was being held to prepare for a performance tonight, so the equipment and instruments there in preparation for the concert were all destroyed with the interior of the building. Included was a Fazioli concert grand piano that was worth over $150,000.

The BYU filming equipment there from the production truck (several digital video cameras and other equipment) was reported to have been a loss of over 2 million dollars. There was an antique harp and other instruments. The roof fell into the building at about 6am this morning. What a tragedy! The fire investigators believe the fire started somewhere in the roof but have not been able to investigate yet.
