$3.99

Title: Wedding March, from A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Composer: Felix Mendelssohn, arr. David Gable

Instrumentation: Violin and Viola

Printout: 2 pages

Note: This is a must-have piece for wedding musicians. In an interesting musicalogical twist, Mendelssohn’s Wedding March from the incidental music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which is most often used as a wedding recessional, serves as a processional in the play, whereas Wagner’s Bridal Chorus, which serves almost exclusively as a processional, is played after the ceremony in the opera. This setting includes the first two sections of the march.
