More about Stephen Reid:
I am a PhD Candidate in Organizational Behavior, but I have been passionate about music my whole life. I primarily play keyboards (piano, organ, accordion, keytar), but I also play violin, concert percussion, and sing. I enjoy writing my own arrangements of sacred music for all groups I perform in, especially choral groups. I particularly enjoy taking instrumental classical songs, creating lyrics based on scripture, and adapting them into choral arrangements.

Song background:

This is a choral adaptation of Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings" combined with text of Doctrine and Covenants 121. This arrangement captures both the bitter pain and quiet peace that came to Joseph Smith during his trials in Liberty Jail, and more generally the pain and peace that we all experience when working with God through our personal trials.
