Culture: Mormon No More

-Axios

The famed Mormon Tabernacle Choir has performed for the last time," the Salt Lake Tribune's Peggy Fletcher Stack (@religiongal) writes:

• "This weekend, as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints gather, ... the beloved musicians sitting beneath the gigantic organ in downtown Salt Lake City’s Conference Center will have a new name ... The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square."
• "The change comes in response to church President Russell M. Nelson’s August 2018 edict to use the church’s full name and discontinue using the term 'Mormon' as shorthand for the Utah-based faith and its members."
