What kind of music did you/will you get married to

Your question brings back sweet memories: my college roommate, Philip Aaberg--former Windham Hill pianist, and general keyboard genius extraordinaire, gave us the gift of his music for a wedding present. He played several original improvisations, plus his own version of Abdullah Ibrahim's "The Wedding", all played on a beautiful sounding Mason-Hamlin grand piano. Tears all around, including in the eyes of the bride and groom!

Beethoven STRING QUARTET IN A MINOR Op 132 Heilige Dankgesang eines Genesenden an die Gottheit, in der lydischen Tonart. Molto adagio - Neue kraft fühlend. Andante ('Song of thanksgiving of a convalescent, in the Lydian mode', alternating with Molto adagio ('feeling new strength') But only if you are serious about your marriage. We had a string quartet playing it quite admirably with cues and everything.

I wrote my own ballad/song and worked with the wedding band in the studio to learn it and get it right. Male and female singers in a duet with word representing each of our viewpoints and love for each other at the time. Came out beautiful at the wedding and captured our sentiments toward each other perfectly. Very touching.

However, there is nobody in the world at any wedding, christening, communion or other event that will ever be able to spin a disk for us so we can dance to it. And you will never hear it on the radio. The one downside.

Enjoy,
Bob

Genesis "Follow You / Follow Me"

Charles Mingus, "Duke Ellington's Sound of Love." Could have been funnier, I guess, like my marriage itself. But it was gorgeous. Nice procession music.
