Donny Osmond, other artists to join benefit concert at Hollywood Bowl – Deseret News
The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square will be sharing the stage with five guest artists during two nights of its “Songs of Hope Benefit Concert” this June.
The five guest artists to perform with the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at the world-famous Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California, are Donny Osmond, David Foster, Katharine McPhee, Stephanie J. Block and Sebastian Arcelus, per a press release published on ChurchofJesusChrist.org.
Tickets for the concert, to be performed June 24 and 25, are available for purchase here.
“This concert represents a meaningful intersection of music and purpose,” Tabernacle Choir President Michael O. Leavitt said in the church’s press release.
“As we return to the Hollywood Bowl, we do so not only to celebrate a historic moment, but to invite others to participate in efforts that uplift and strengthen families and communities.”
The two nights of benefit concerts at the Hollywood Bowl will take place on the 100th anniversary year of the Tabernacle Choir’s first performance at the venue in 1926.
All ticket sale revenue from the June concerts will be donated to charities, including CARE, Helen Keller Intl and The Hunger Project, to benefit women and children worldwide.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will match the concert ticket sales, “thereby doubling the charitable contributions associated with the event,” according to the church’s press release.
