Cornish Musician Alex Govier can give you a huge choice of instruments For Your Wedding in Cornwall, including even organ.
I just mention this possibility for the truly adventurous, who should definitely warn their registrar in advance! As a Fellow of Trinity College of Music London (F.T.C.L.) in organ playing this brings me back to my musical roots and then some.
My brand new Roland organ is a very versatile instrument which can play light orchestral style music, big band, hammond sounds, piano music and more until the time comes to shock your guests with the majestic sounds illustrated below for the bride`s arrival or the bride and grrom`s exit up the "aisle" of the hotel conference centre!. This will definitely be a talking point with your guests ever afterwards!
s I have mentioned on other pages, there is a prohibition at having religious music at a civil wedding, no matter how elaborate the other arrangements may be at a carefully organised hotel wedding.
This means that the singing of hymns or religious themed solos is out, together of course with any readings from the Bible or other holy books. But in fact virtually all the music which has been associated with weddings as organ voluntaries and processionals in church weddings are are entirely secular in nature, even though traditionally played in church weddings.
he following tunes are just fairly obvious initial suggestions. There are many other possibilities but these all sound magnificent and absolutely right (expecially the John Williams tunes which when still in Yorkshire I would play on a Father Willis Organ for a local church every May Bank Holiday). None of them should have direct religious associations to worry your registrar. Or if needed you could book me to play the organ at your church wedding as I am a fully qualified church organist also
The Bridal March (Wagner) - The Wedding March (Mendelsohnn) - Toccata in D minor (Bach) - Arrival of the Queen of Sheba (Handel) - Purcell Trumpet Tune - Grand March from Aida - Widor`s Toccata - ET Theme (John Williams) - Superman March (John Williams) - Schindler`s List (John Williams) - Jurassic Park (John Williams)
ou can book organ for the ceremony and piano for before and afterwards for an extra charge to cover additional help with transportation and setup. For more details you can go on my other website, www.playing4u.co..
