Wedding Music
on: October 02, 2008, 07:48:08 PM
Hi all,

I am in desperate need of some wedding music! Specifically Anne's Theme. This is a Christian Wedding, so any Christian Contemporary or just typical wedding music would be helpful!

I've been playing the piano for 14 years. I am our church pianist. And I read music, but more hymn style. I'm not that good at arrangements, so they need to be easier. I add in a ton, and play the bass with chords. Also, I play some by ear.

Thanks for your help!!!

Do you mean Annie's Song by John Denver?

Yeah, it's right up there with Stevie Wonder's "I Just Called to Say I Love You".  Every time he modulates up a semi-tone I want to... well, puke.

I know which one she means:

Anne's Theme by Hagood Hardy on the piano.

The only thing is...it is very difficult to find for free.

I'm surprised at you Thal, that a highly sensitive and emotionally emancipated man such as yourself would eschew such a maudlin song dripping with sentimentality.
