So while it may appear there are a good number of "winners" chosen for the choir to sing in the Relief Society Music Festival, there are many more worthy pieces written by Mormons, says Diane Bastian, organizer of the event. Some whose songs are chosen for presentation are familiar to the LDS musical scene like Janice Kapp Perry.
Others are trying to break into the LDS market, and still others are simply finding a channel for their musical energy.
