I am not a big fan of the Lohengrin Wedding march or the Mendelssohn Midsummernights Dream one either. I am not superstitious, but have you read the story behind these tunes?
Purcell Trumpet Voluntary or Trumpet Tune are also very good, but a bit overplayed!
Telemann has a series of 12 Heroic Marches that are excellent. With titles like "Honor", "Grace", "Joy", they provide the proper sound and musical context for wishing somebody all the best for a life together!
Music can be found: Heroic Music:- Honour
and here: Werner Icking Music Archive: Georg Philipp Telemann
In German, this is called Heldenmusik. You will have to combine the 3 string parts for the organ |
Ok awesome... I'll have a look at those. I'm not sure how many people he's gonna have playing. I can't imagine it wont be alot because there not very rich haha. If he does choose to have another person playing I will try to have him get a piano/orgeon player of some type.
