BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — People cheered, waved Argentine flags and held posters as they welcomed members of the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square as they arrived in Buenos Aires for the fifth stop on their multicity, multiyear “Songs of Hope” (“Canciones De Esperanza”) tour.
This is the first time the choir and orchestra have been to Argentina, and they will be celebrating 100 years of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in South America.
“We’re an exclamation point in a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ in South America,” Tabernacle Choir President Michael O. Leavitt said in an interview as the choir and orchestra were preparing for the tour stop.
