SALT LAKE CITY — One of the most celebrated composers in American music is voicing his support for the preservation of Abravanel Hall , the home of the Utah Symphony.
"I knew Maurice Abravanel, whom I admired greatly both as a person and as an artist," Williams wrote in a letter shared by Musicians of the Utah Symphony. "And I’ve been privileged on many occasions to conduct in his namesake concert hall in Salt Lake City, where I recorded my musical theme for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games with the Utah Symphony and your magnificent Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and where I conducted the Boston Pops Orchestra on several visits to your great city.
The iconic performance hall’s future has gained the support of thousands of Utahns who have expressed their support to save the hall in an online petition.
