There was a violin solo as part of the choir song "Lead Thou Me On." It was very moving. The choir also sang to video excerpts from the film "Sweetwater Rescue." This portion concluded with the song "Dear Zion," which was commonly sung by the pioneers. President Hinckley spoke briefly. "We should never forget the pioneers and their sacrifice." The performance then concluded with " Come, Come Ye Saints." Very moving. My only regret is I could not find it on the LDS Website or You Tube to share.
