This version is arranged for Solo Cor Anglais (English Horn) and Piano and the performance time is around three and a half minutes. Of course, performers, especially at weddings, may wish to abridge and shorten the arrangement. This is easily done as the different sections are self-contained and interchangeable. Repeats may also be ignored. Both the full length youtube performance and the short audio sample are from the Clarinet version off this arrangement.

The solo part is intermediate level, while the piano accompaniment suits an advanced intermediate player.Both will find this ideal for formal and informal performances, with both parts enjoying melodic interest.

Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with building dynamic range and stamina.

This is a reduction for string quartet and piano, with the intention of giving better practicity to groups that intend to play at weddings, and not only that, it can be used in several occasions, both by professionals and beginners, because it was adapted to be easy to perform. The Wedding March by Felix Mendelssohn was composed in 1842 to set the music for the play A Midsummer Night's Dream (Musik zu Ein Sommernachtstraum). It is a piece of music played during wedding ceremonies, at the moment of the bride's entrance, usually preceded by notes of Triumphal Clarins that emphasize the importance of this moment. Originally the piece is instrumental, having been performed at weddings in the version.

Have you ever been to a really nice restaurant and had the pleasure of listening to a pianist playing while you eat? Ever wished you could play in a similar way? This arrangement might be able to help. If you are around grade 5 – 6, give some of these individually arranged pieces by Kevin P. Holt a try and you could soon be entertaining your own dinner guests.

The Wedding March by Mendelssohn is probably one of most well know processionals and is often requested when I play at weddings. Here is the arrangement I created and use when out playing. To show added versatility with this version I have used a church organ registration to show it works equally well on an electronic keyboard. Have fun!
