More Details

Music Style: as professional trumpeters we have experience playing instruments and music from the Baroque era to modern day classics.  We can provide everything from Baroque repertoire on period instruments, to traditional wedding marches and hymns with or without organ accompaniment, to current pop / jazz / contemporary music to suit your preferences.  You can choose a mixture of styles to suit the various parts of your wedding day, or stick to one particular style with pieces chosen appropriately to align with the progression of your day.

Ceremonial Music: you may wish to have your own custom fanfare written to announce the start of the ceremony, followed by traditional wedding music for the entrance and exit of the wedding party.  Or you may wish to have original compositions to accompany each special moment of the day.  Cavendish Brass will work with you to create your unique and perfect soundscape.  Any custom written music will be printed and framed for you as a keepsake.  We can also provide music to entertain your guests during the signing of the register in your ceremony.

Sample Music List: this is by no means exhaustive – we are happy to take on piece/song requests and work with you to ensure we can provide exactly what you would like to hear on your special day.

Fanfares

Fanfares can be customised to suit your event; they can be a short flourish, or extended with processional / recessional music to accompany the entrance / exit of a person or party.  We have a catalogue of fanfares we can draw from, and custom written fanfares are available upon request.
