Dan, the man, levitan
We love our harpists name! It is just so musical. Very appropriate for a musician, I suppose.
Wednesday we sat down with Dan’s list of questions and music and set out to pick the ceremony and cocktail hour music. Our harpist sent us a list of various songs that he could play, both classical and contemporary. Now I have to admit, I am woefully ignorant of classical music. Thank goodness for iTunes. My fiance and I sat at the computer and typed in some of the different songs Dan listed on his playlist. The classical music seemed the most appropriate for a harp/flute combo. I just couldn’t wrap my brain around an acoustic harp rendition of John Denver. Most days I can’t wrap my head around John Denver music in general.
In the end, we went the traditional route for the most part. Quite frankly, it was just easier. I did pick music for the recessional that is a little different, just to change it up a little. For the cocktail party we picked more contemporary music. It is a celebration after all! A little Phantom of Opera, some Godfather theme for Dad and a little Maple Leaf Rag to liven things up. Plus whatever Dan comes up with.
Another thing checked off of the list of things to do.
