Well-Tempered Weddings

This comprehensive collection is a must for the wedding pianist! The music ranges in style from classical to contemporary and contains service music for preludes, processionals, bridal marches, unity candle lightings, recessionals, and postludes. The book has a special binding that lays flat on the music rack, regardless of which page you are on! Although each selection can be played as a solo, there are optional instrumental obbligatos for some selections that feature cello, oboe, flute, trumpet, and violin, and other selections may be performed with a vocalist. Each option has separate sheets for the soloist. The 2-disc listening CD contains all selections (consider loaning the CD to the prospective couple to allow them to choose their own music!) as well as accompaniment tracks for all of the vocal songs. As a bonus, Well-Tempered Weddings has repertoire suggestions for the service, a sample service order, and a reproducible wedding checklist for the bride and groom starting nine months prior to the wedding day! This is a piano collection you will use for many years to come!
