Today we played for a wedding at the Beaver Creek Chapel. It was a perfect day to get married. Water rushed down the creek, the skies were swathed in a gauzy blue, breezes wafted the scents of blooming flowers through the air, and the couple was surrounded by those who love them - both present and in spirit.
As we recently added a few new pieces into our repertoire, we enjoyed including them in today's prelude and postlude music. Some of the additions included Bach's "Arioso" and "My heart ever Faithful." We also included the arrangement of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" which had been requested earlier this year as we liked how it turned out and wanted to use it again.
The bridal procession entered the chapel to Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," while the bride followed with Pachebel's "Canon".
As the ceremony ended, the couple exited with Handel's "Hornpipe." We then followed with several pieces including Beethoven's "Ode to Joy," Handel's "La Rejouissance," and the Beatle's "Here Comes The Sun."
We enjoyed being a small part of this couple's beautiful, perfect day.
