About
Meeting of Titans: America’s best-loved choir meets the world’s favourite bass-baritone: Bryn Terfel and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir join forces in an inspiring survey of classical, spiritual, Welsh and American folk songs
Bryn Terfel has sold over 2.3 million records worldwide
The lead track, the eponymous Homeward Bound, is a stunning emotional show stopper
Recorded in Salt Lake City in May 2013, this “event” record is set to thrill classical audiences on both sides of the Atlantic – and beyond
Welsh bass-baritone powerhouse Bryn Terfel unites with the historic Mormon Tabernacle Choir (MTC)
Known as “America’s Choir”, and currently the best-selling classical act in the US, this extraordinary American musical institution was founded 166 years ago by American Pioneers, migrating at the time from the Midwest to Salt Lake Valley. Many of the original Pioneers included Mormons hailing from Wales – a connection that Bryn will make through music and song on this popular vocal and choral programme
Features spectacular new arrangements from the pen of the award-winning MTC Musical Director Mack Wilberg
Also features special guests Tamara Mumford and Sissel Kyrkjebø
Repertoire drawn from American spirituals, Welsh favourites, sacred arias, popular hymns and the world of musicals
Prepare for the thrilling prospect of the 360-voice Mormon Tabernacle Choir and a full symphony orchestra, united in song with the acclaimed bass-baritone Bryn Terfel – a unique event and a unique album.

he’s an eloquent actor as well as a singer, and you swallow every word he utters in Homeward Bound, a relaxed, warming collection...Terfel, most importantly, never sounds like a tonsil superstar standing at a mike...the great Bryn still has the power to make us believe.
