Wedding Programs
We offer many exciting options for wedding ceremonies. The ultimate in glorious sound for your special day would be a classical program, custom designed with you and performed by The Madison Brass. We have the finest wedding library in the Midwest! The Madison Brass performs beautiful prelude music followed by spectacular processional pieces for your entrance. We also have a wide variety of appropriate service music and can perform any special hymn you might choose. We conclude the ceremony with a festive recessional piece. The festive atmosphere is continued with exciting postlude music
The Madison Brass can perform indoors or outdoors and we often travel to perform at weddings. With the addition of our smooth drummer we can transition into jazzy reception music immediately following the ceremony! This is a feature only we can do!
Other options to make the atmosphere very special are a trumpet soloist with the accompaniment of a string quartet, organ, piano, or harpsichord. Yet additional possibilities include a vocalist to provide exactly the musical ambiance you seek for your ceremony.
As a full-time professional musician I will take the time to work with you every step of the way!
