Niagara Wedding Musicians Pillar and Post. This was such a beautiful day! We love performing at the Rose Garden as it is just so perfect for an outdoor wedding. Our string trio performed the following music and even added  an additional recessional song to make the day even more special for the Laura and Vince, the bride and groom.

We love performing at the Pillar and post, and the Rose garden is perfect for our more intimate ensembles, of solo violin, solo cello, and string duo and trio. 

Bridesmaids: Bach Air

One of our favourite songs to perform for the wedding party. This music is serene, and has an incredible flow to it. It works will with our string duo and quartet.  Bach’s “Air on the G String” is a beautiful and timeless piece of music that is often chosen as a popular selection for wedding ceremonies. Originally written for orchestra, it has since been arranged for a variety of instrumental ensembles, including string trio. The piece is known for its simple, yet elegant melody that is carried by the first violin, while the other two string instruments provide a rich harmonic foundation. The slow tempo and sustained notes create a sense of calm and serenity that is perfect for wedding ceremonies. One of the benefits of choosing “Air on the G String” for string trio is the flexibility it offers in terms of instrumentation. A standard string trio consists of a violin, viola, and cello, but it can be adapted to other combinations of string instruments, such as two violins and a cello. Additionally, the piece can be performed in a variety of settings, whether it’s an indoor or outdoor ceremony, in a church or outdoor venue, or as part of a larger ensemble. The adaptability and versatility of “Air on the G String” make it an excellent choice for wedding music.

Bride: Pachelbel Canon in D

Always a classic! Pachelbel’s Canon in D is a popular and beloved piece of music that is often chosen for wedding ceremonies, particularly for string ensembles. The piece was originally written for three violins and basso continuo, but has since been arranged for a variety of instrumental ensembles, including string quartet, string trio, and even solo instruments.

Repeated chords

The canon is characterized by its repeating chord progression and melody that is passed between the instruments, creating a beautiful and complex tapestry of sound. The piece begins with a simple melody played by the violins, which is then joined by the viola and cello to create a full and rich harmonic foundation.
