2019 Pioneer Day Concert with Sissel - Music for a Summer Evening

[@edottinger8180]

All One can really say and or add is a very Sincere Thank You to Sissel for sharing her beautiful God Given talent and to all who have helped her. Amen and Amen.

[@elvispoe9528]

John D Johnston here. I have only recently discovered Sissel and have been listening to everything l can find. This lady is truly phenomenal. Most of her songs l have heard are all prayers that have touched my soul so deeply. I endorse all the comments below, l can add nothing that has not already been eloquently said. God bless Sissel.

[@kristawasden5536]

I can’t stop listening to “Slow Down” at 48:00! Oh my goodness. It calms and soothes my soul and it does feel like heaven! Sissel, thank you for your delicate voice and sensitivity to the timely message in this song. And the tabernacle choir and orchestra was absolutely sensitive and heavenly as well. I can’t thank you all enough for this song that makes heaven feel so close. I feel a longing for more of this heavenly feeling in our busy and troubled world today. I’m going to slow down more to listen and hear his voice. Thank you, thank you, thank you tabernacle choir, orchestra, and Sissel! 🙏 👏

Nice to see someone express my same sentiment, can't say how many times I've replayed that as a single, Slow Down. It evokes sublime experience, near divinity, so unique, so very special is it.

[@melissac.4374]

I was there to watch it in person and when she sang "Slow Down", oh my goodness...you could hear a pin drop. It was so spiritual and magical at the same time. She was singing a prayer and everyone was praying the words with her. That is why that song received a standing ovation...not only for the way she sang it and her perfect voice, but because we all felt the magnitude of the words she sang. That, to me, was the most amazing moment. I'm a forever fan.

[@benzun9600]

Yes that was absolutely amazing. She has a heavenly gift. So grateful to see in person.

[@willpeterson5120]

Yu bully me

[@FReedoMedium]

So, there you have it! ~ I wasn't the only one actually praying that her lyrics would be felt too, in a special way! ~ Please note how the song ends... "and KNOW -- that HE is GOD !"; -- that's the reason that the Pioneers followed Prophet & Pres. Brigham Young to the "Promised Land" (though desolate) Salt Lake Valley in 1847 -- because they KNEW too ~ that a Special Spirit prevailed over him and their "Saintly" works! ~~ [note how poignantly that Sissel also felt the spirit at this specific moment (starting at 53:00, and subsequently]; -- as the beauty & serenity of the Spirit of God carried through the remainder of the concert, though maybe in a more-subdued manner)! ~ and if you don't believe that Brigham was a Spirit-guided leader, just read some of the amazing stories in Preston Nibley's compilation -- "Faith Promoting Stories": archive.org/details/faithpromotingst00nibl (see Emmeline B. Wells story, pp. 137-140; and if you want to know what Pioneering perseverance amidst poverty was really like, read "A Bride's Life Among the Pioneers, by R.C. Atwood, pp. 72-77?! -- They, as we also did last night, with Sissel, knew that amidst our seeming trials -- in a special way, that we can prevail by knowing THAT GOD IS SURELY AWARE OF US (and our needs) if WE WILL BUT TURN TO HIM! -- So, shall we PRAY TOGETHER! & Believe! -- that HE WILL solve all the problems, and fill the needs of the humble; -- which is why Sissel sang the subsequent (curiously-placed) "New Year's" song, and commented that it can become a NEW BEGINNING -- if we, like Saints & Pioneers will look, or seek, to KNOW & TURN TO HIM, by following our present-day Prophets too!

[@melissac.4374]

@@FReedoMedium I completely agree. Well said. :)

[@reedwagstaff8080]

I was her Stage Manager during the concert. She was caught completely by surprise by the response to "Slow Down." I explained to her that children in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints learn the little song "Listen to the Still Small Voice" very early on, and that it is in the DNA of members of our faith to seek and listen to that Voice. This song connected at a spiritual level, and her reverence and bearing witness (even though she is not of our faith) of the truth in this song allowed the Still Voice to amplify its meaning to all that hear.

[@leonardreynolds2268]

When Sisal sings “slow down,” she makes us in the special mood to feel the Spirit. In this harried and stressed world we need to slow down and listen more to the Spirit more than ever and her song was supremely needed. I brought my elderly Mother to hear Sisal the first time she came. Mother could not stand in line so I left her in the Tabernacle and held her place in line. I told one of the service missionaries that I was holding the place for my elderly mother and I would need to know when to go get her just before we were to go inside for the concert. A few minutes later, the missionaries came and told me to get my mother and they would escort us to seats that were given to us. We were taken to the very first row in the conference center, a few seats away from the Prophet and we could look up to Sisal who was right in front of us. What a thrill it was to hear her beautiful voice and lovely face right next to us. My mother is 96 years old now, and she still talks about that night. My husband and I were later called to the be Service Missionaries on guess where? Temple Square!

[@jbbevan]

In "Slow Down" she caused the collective attendees to hold their breath. I've attended concerts for over 60 years and it was the most magical single moment I can remember...ever.

Hearing this live was surreal as you had to keep reminding yourself you were listening to something live, not recorded.

4 years later I am enjoying this presentation for the first time. Incredibly beautiful. The orchestra, the choir, the history shared and of course the magnificent Sissel. Thank you seems so inadequate but it is so sincere. I will listen again and again. Uplifting, encouraging, dynamic. God Bless everyone involved in these productions. 41:21

[@allan6554]

2019 Pioneer Concert with The Tabernacle Choir The concert with Sissel was unique. The songs that Sissel delivered were so immersive and touching, all through. Her charming, natural and warm radiance and tremendous singing talent also captivated the audience, especially "Slow Down", where she received long standing ovation, for this impressive performance. And thanks to Sissel for her presentation of songs from Scandinavia. A concert I will always return to and hear again and again. A repeat of the collaboration with Sissel and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir will be most welcome. Bravo Sissel, It was truly a song from your heart to all of us, heartfelt thanks. And thanks to the Tabernacle Choir, orchestra and organizers, for their fine and good quality concerts.

When I saw several weeks ago on Sissel's website that she was going to be in Salt Lake City, I so wanted to go. But I did not have the wherewithal, funds, or health to traverse the 935 miles from Omaha to Utah the way the pioneers did. I would guess that this was sold-out a year in advance anyway? Last night I was watching my favorite artists via KZbin on my big screen TV and when it came time to again watch Sissel, to my delight I discovered this! When she first appeared on stage to cover ABBA's song (my #2 fave band of all-time) I knew that an angel from Utah was now passing through my room in Nebraska. Thanks to whomever put this replay on KZbin for all the world to see. You have bestowed a great blessing. May God bless you all! I will be sharing this with many friends and family to share this love.

Peace be with you and return home in satisfaction and great safety.

"and KNOW -- that HE is GOD !"; -- that's the reason that the Pioneers followed Prophet & Pres.

This was so beautiful! Sissel's voice is truly angelic. I loved the closing hymn, "Thou Gracious God, Whose Mercy Lends." It was very touching. I would love for it to be included in our new Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Hymnbook coming in 2020!
