Weddingmarch

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809-1847) was a German composer, conductor, organist and pianist of the early Romantic period. This Wedding March, extracted from the theatre music written for William Shakespeare’s play "A Midsummer Night’s Dream," composed in 1842, is one of Mendelssohn’s most popular piecesIt is, of course, often performed at the organ at wedding ceremonies, but it is also a favourite festive opening piece for orchestra and band concerts. You can see and hear an organ on which Mendelssohn has played Wedding March in the Saint Ann’s Church at Tottenham.
