You will no doubt have your own ideas as to your favourite melodies or special song, but they are always happy to assist and advise in all aspects of the music, working hand in hand to ensure the perfect choice for your big day at all times. They play music ranging from Baroque masterpieces by Bach, Vivaldi, Handel through the Classical and Romantic delights of Mozart, Schubert, Dvorak, Tchaikovsky. The 20th century gave us a great resource of jazz, ragtime, musicals, Hollywood scores and popular songs, perfect for either the celebratory or relaxed part of your day.
