She wants a recording of the traditional wedding march played as she enters. Problem: the only CD we have of it is a very heavy-handed and overblown orchestral version. Before I waste mucho bucks buying every wedding anthology CD out there, does somebody know of a good recording? String quartet or restrained orchestra, etc.??? I call upon the power of the Mudcat for a clue! |

19 Nov 03 - 08:55 PM (#1057365) Subject: RE: Good recording of Wedding March From: Joe Offer I don't think I'd like recorded music for a wedding. We had friends play the Pachelbel Canon on violin with piano accompaniment, and it was lovely. And I certainly wouldn't want a MIDI to accompany my bride down the aisle (actually, we all walked together). I found some interesting MIDI pages that might give some good ideas - but if you actually have a MIDI wedding, don't blame it on me. Click here and here for some good wedding stuff. And here (click) for some Wagner, just because I like him. Happy wedding. -Joe Offer- |
