Plays Bach Music
That classical music to choose for your wedding ceremony
The use of classical music can turn any wedding ceremony in an act of great beauty.
Classical music can add romance, class, set the tone for each part of your ceremony, and only sound to paint a picture of your special day.
Not only do people remember the visual delight of the bride blush, beautiful wedding dress, spectacular cake, beautiful flowers - they also recall "Music." Stick in their minds for years to come.
If you hire a string quartet or harpist to provide music for the ceremony, then usually offer some suggestions on the choice of music. However, beware that there are only pieces that suggests they would prefer play - rather than what you'd like.
If you are unfamiliar with classical music, then the choice can be very daunting. However, here is a list of beautiful music that has been tested by professional string quartets playing at weddings for many years.
From the Bride Entrance music - The Procession
- Pachelbel - Canon in D
- Trumpet Voluntary - J. Clark
- The Wedding March - Mendelssohn
- The Bridal Chorus (from Lohengrin) - Wagner
- Water Music - Handel
- Ave Maria - Bach-Gounod
- Ave Maria - Schubert
Register or Sign Marriage License
- String Quartets - Mozart
- Divertimenti - Mozart
- Pachelbel - Canon in D
- Air on a G String - Bach
- Flower Duet - Delibes
- Passacaglia - Handel
Exit Music - OUTPUT
- Arrival of the Queen of Sheba - Handel
- Wedding March - Mendelssohn
- Diverimenti - Mozart
- Water Music (Hornpipe) - Handel
- Alla Danza - Handel
- Jesu, Joy of Mans Desiring.
This list is of course, not exhaustive. However, it provides an excellent base point to work.
An excellent example program from the list would be:
- Processional - Pachelbel - Canon in D
- Signing the Registry - Air on a G String and the Flower Duet
- Recessive - Arrival of the Queen of Sheba.
Pachebel Canon is quiet and very beautiful. Air on a G String is contemplative and The Flower Duet is beautiful, happy and stimulating. Finally, the arrival of the Queen of Sheba is large, fast and fun. It is a wonderful piece of music to the recession and will have you and your husband jumping back down the hall.
If you do not know what some of these pieces sound like, then do not worry. All you have to do is type the name of the piece followed by MP3 on Google. Below you will find lots of sites where you can listen or download their music for free.
So, now you can choose the music for your wedding as you surf!
Not even the Beach Boys could do that ...
