Here is some follow-up from an e-mail from Great Grandpa:

"And now the rest of the story. . .
When I learned that BYU Weekly was doing a bit on Mission Reunions I thought that a word about the Millennial Chorus might be interesting. And so I volunteered. The part they did not show was when I told about two events that were noteworthy. - 1) We sang at the intermission of a Football [soccer] Game, 60,000 spectators in the grand stands. I learned that grand stands are literally places where the spectators stand and lean on rails thus grand stands. 2) The Chorus was asked to prepare a program for the BBC. We did. When I told Dad [J. Spencer Cornwall] about it he replied, "You're one up on us, we've not been able to get the [Tabernacle] Choir on the BBC yet." Sorry they cut that out but I was pleased to be interviewed and what was left in was great. "
