The iconic Salt Lake Tabernacle resonated with the unifying power of faith on Sunday, April 27, 2025, as hundreds from diverse religious backgrounds gathered to celebrate the power of faith through music and dance. The event, titled “Sacred Music Evening: Many Faiths, One Family” is sponsored by the Salt Lake Interfaith Roundtable.
This year’s performers were the Utah Pipe Band, the Salt Lake Children’s Choir, Northern Traditional Dance, Luz de las Naciones Choir, Tee-opa-shaw (Sioux), the Center for Spiritual Living band, Jewish music from Cantor Adam Davis of Congregation Kol Ami, the Salt Lake Buddhist Temple and the Salt Lake City Mass Choir.
Coskun Kariparduc of Emerald Hills Institute opened the evening with a Muslim call to prayer. Rabbi Alan Scott Bachman and Jeremy Lapin followed with a Jewish shofar devotion. Imam Shuaib Din of the Utah Islamic Center offered the invocation. The gathering concluded with a prayer from Pritpal Singh of Utah’s Sikh community.
The Salt Lake Interfaith Roundtable “envisions a community and world where people of diverse faiths, cultures and belief systems enjoy mutual respect, understanding, appreciation, acceptance, harmony and love.”
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints hosted the event presided by regional Church leader Elder Bruce Boucher.
