Subj: [kl] Wedding music?
Date: Thu, 2 Jan 2003 12:22:16 -0500

I've been asked to play at a friend's wedding in the Summer, but my knowledge of chamber music is negligible.

They've suggested clarinet plus 2 or 3 string players.
What combinations am I likely to find music for? clt, violin, viola?, clt, violin, cello? clt, violin, viola, cello?

Actual music suggestions would be very welcome too.
The general suggestion is popular/light classical - beethoven, mozart etc. Plus she wants Pachelbel's Canon to come down the aisle too. Probably looking for around an hour in total - beforehand, during registrar bits, and after.

I don't see why we couldn't substitute alto sax for clarinet in a few cases as well.

Thanks for any suggestions,

Bernie
