These are two recent weddings that we were performing at on April 26th 2008 and May 3rd 2008, we have played at 8 previous to these during January to April....it is now definitely
WEDDING SEASON.....so hold onto your hats! So we will be out practically every weekend now until September....
Last weekend we were performing at Airth Castle near Falkirk.
The ceremony was held inside the castle and then the guests moved onto the lawn area outside.
We stayed in the beautiful foyer which had an amazing acoustic...no need for amplification here, it was really loud!
We played Canon in D (go to http://www.stringsaloud.co.uk/ to hear this sampled and recorded by us) for the Processional, Fields of Gold for the Signing of the Register and Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve for the Recessional.
This weekend we played outside at Harburn House for the ceremony on the lawn.
We also got some "interesting" shots by the "gazebo"/hut/wendy house(?).
You will notice that we have a different cellist, Fiona McLachlan (RSAMD graduate and Cairn Quartet member). Roz was actually a guest for once at a wedding instead of playing at them all the time!
For this wedding we played Canon in D for the Processional, Ave Maria (Schubert) and Secret Wedding, Braveheart (go to www.stringsaloud.co.uk to hear this) and the Mendelssohn Wedding March for the Recessional.
This ceremony was conducted by a Humanist celebrant and was very touching, sincere and entertaining!
