A Bride's Guide to Wedding Music. Naxos 8.557246-47

IT'S nearly that time of year - white dresses, page-boys, bridesmaids and flowers. Yes, the wedding season is almost upon us.

The dress is nearly finished, the flowers are ordered and it is too late to decide you want a quiet little wedding away from it all.

So, save yourself a little hassle and buy this CD, which has all the choices you'll need for the music to enhance your big day.

The music for your guests to listen to as they come into the church, the anthem to accompany you down the aisle, a quieter piece perhaps when the register is being signed and something triumphant for when you both leave at the start of your big adventure.

Some of the music you will recognise immediately - Handel's Zadok the Priest; Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring and Air on a G String - some is a little different - Mozart's Laudate Dominium; Gluck's Dance of the Blessed Spirits; Faur's Cantique de jean Racine - but mostly this is a traditional collection.

There is a booklet with information about performing rights (the legal implications), where to order sheet music and the degree of musicality you will need from your musicians and singers.

All-in-all this is a useful guide with the benefit of some beautiful music.
