Robert M. Cundick

Cundick's interest in music started at a young age, and he studied under Mormon Tabernacle organist Alexander Schreiner and later under Leroy J. Robertson.

This included accompanying the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and playing organ solos on the weekly broadcast, Music & the Spoken Word.

He joined the music faculty at Brigham Young University (BYU) in 1957 but his work there was interrupted due to various callings by LDS Church leaders.

In 1962, LDS Church president David O. McKay called Cundick and his family (including five children ages 5–11) to go to London, England, to serve as the organist at the new Hyde Park Chapel.

While in England, Cundick appeared in concert at St. Paul's Cathedral and King's College, Cambridge, in addition to a BBC broadcast and his daily recitals at Hyde Park Chapel.

After completing this two-year mission, Cundick and his family returned to Provo, Utah, where he resumed his teaching and compositional activity at BYU.

[4] Most recently, Cundick composed the music to God's Everlasting Love, [5] an oratorio with text by David A. Bednar, performed in the fall of 2009 by the BYU-Idaho choirs and orchestras.
