Sally Bytheway Chorale and Orchestra

What began as 20 members rehearsing in a basement in 2005 has become the 92-person-strong, award-winning ensemble: The Sally Bytheway Chorale. Comprised of volunteer members from all over the state of Utah, including some former members of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the Eleanore Kennard Chorale, and Lex DeAzevado’s Millenium Choir, the Chorale was recently recognized with one of Utah’s Best in State awards.  Host Tim Stover chats with founder, director, and namesake Sally Bytheway Brinton about Christmas traditions, gingerbread cookie men, and music that can change your life. Sally has taught vocal technique privately and directed choirs for the past 35 years, and her musical performances have taken her as far as Jerusalem and Rome.
