The Orchestra at Temple Square is performing two concerts this weekend with Igor Grupmann, Music Director conducting. Works to be presented in the concerts include Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5 (Emperor), Wagner’s “Vorspiel und Liebestod” from Tristan and Isolde, and Mendelssohn’s Italian Symphony. They present three or four concerts each year on their own in addition to accompanying the Mormon Tabernacle Choir almost every weekend for television and radio broadcasts of “Music and the Spoken Word”. The orchestra is comprised of about 75 talented and expertly-trained instrumental musicians from the Salt Lake City area. They have been performing together now for 10 years and have made a large contribution to the musical experiences available in Salt Lake City.
