Elder Christofferson and President C. Shane Reese offered remarks about the new facility, the people who helped make it possible and the students who will be blessed by it.

“I'm proud of the reputation and accomplishments of music students at BYU," Elder Christofferson said. "I believe that this new facility and all that it provides will build upon that remarkable past.”

In his Second Century address, President Spencer W. Kimball “talked about the brilliant stars in music that would be refined as we host them here at Brigham Young University,” President Reese said. '“This building will hasten those efforts and the development of those stars.”

Additionally, a choral chamber ensemble performed “Nuper Rosarum Flores” and the BYU Philharmonic Orchestra played “Symphony No. 3, ‘Organ Symphony’: Finale.”
