I spent my Easter weekend with both of these guys*:
*by "spent time with", I'm counting "watched on TV".
I'm sure many of you also shared time with at least one of these fellows Saturday or Sunday (given the above definition). Perhaps you don't recognize the man on the left because you're used to seeing his profile...at the organ...accompanying the choir...the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Dr. Clay Christiansen is an accomplished musician, who as I just learned, also wrote hymn 139 in the LDS Hymn Book.
As usual, the music at this past General Conference was outstanding, due in part to Clay's talents. Thanks to my dad for introducing us.

Being a musician of sorts I think that is awesome you met Clay Christiansen!! Way cool. By the way I am SOOOOOO thrilled that you are expecting. You sure kept it a secret for a long time! I'm biased but I love boys. You're gonna LOVE IT!!!!
How cool! I did not recognize him. Maybe Steve should have taken that picture with him turned backward. =) I agree! The music was great. Justin said the Priesthood choir was really great too.
Hey, I was in Clay's ward in Bountiful a few years ago. He played for us quite often, but he was obviously tired of the traditional stuff. The music he played always sounded so eery. Still amazing, but eery.
