It isn’t every day that we welcome 130 singers into our radio studios—but today is the day! The Southern Utah Heritage Choir of St. George, Utah, along with founder and conductor Floyd Rigby, are gathered in our largest television studio for this taping.  

The choir is a volunteer, community group that gathers each Thursday evening to practice sacred hymns and anthems, as well as a smattering of Broadway, folk and gospel tunes.  The group includes members from all faiths and walks of life and sometimes swells in size to include as many as 170 to 200 voices! 

The choir has concertized across the United States, in the Czech Republic, Armenia, England, Scotland, China, Mexico and the Yucatán Peninsula.  Their upcoming musical tour will be to Ireland, where they’ll perform at Christ Church in Dublin and St. Mary's Cathedral in Killarney. 

Host: Don Shelline 

Repertoire: "All That Life Can Be", "Fairest Lord Jesus", "Do Not Let Your Heart Be Troubled", "My Comfort by Day, My Song in the Night", "Who is Sylvia?", "The Colors of Life", "Once Upon a Time", "Take Our Lives", "O America", "A Prayer for Our Time"
