immaculata Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 Oh, and it's got a wicked cool harmony if you have more than one singer. Sounds awesome in four parts.

Old_Joe Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 how about "You are mine" I always though that was appropriate. I don't know how old it is, or if it's considered traditional
photosynthesis Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 [quote name='Colleen' date='Jun 25 2005, 03:27 PM']Definitely. I recommend Gounod's or Schubert's version. [right][snapback]623129[/snapback][/right] [/quote] I like Schubert's version, but he was such a secular kinda guy. I'm always fascinated with music history and the lives of certain composers.... Like you have composers like Poulenc who loved God and the Church, and then you have composers like Verdi who had serious problems with faith. I love studying how it comes out in their music... But even though Schubert wasn't Catholic, his Ave Maria is my favorite.
photosynthesis Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 [quote name='Raphael' date='Jun 26 2005, 02:44 AM']Iggy will laugh at this, but I'm very fond of Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence and I think one can understand it in the sense of the extreme reverence we should have for marriage, as it talks about Christ descending to save us, His Bride, etc. [right][snapback]623941[/snapback][/right] [/quote] I was going to suggest that hymn too, but wasn't sure it would be liturgically appropriate. It *is* one of my favorites...
photosynthesis Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 I really love "All Glory, Laud and Honor." It has such a joyful tune! Perfect for a wedding.
cmotherofpirl Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 I am not traditional enough - I just sang "Wedding Song" as a duet for a communion at a friends wedding.
