Popular Classical Violin Pieces

I finally got around to uploading some popular Classical Violin pieces for Weddings. (See video below)

Classical Violin music adds timeless elegance and emotional depth to Wedding Ceremonies and Receptions. Here are some pieces by famous Composers Holst, Bach, Handel, Ennio Morricone, and Pachelbel, some of which I played recently at a beautiful Wedding Ceremony in Dublin.

Gustav Holst

  • “Jupiter” from The Planets
    This movement’s uplifting and majestic melody is often arranged for violin. It conveys a sense of joy and celebration, making it ideal for wedding processional or recessional music.

Ennio Morricone

  • “Gabriel’s Oboe” from The Mission
    Although originally for oboe, this piece’s haunting and lyrical melody translates wonderfully to violin and is a favourite for romantic ceremony music.

George Frideric Handel

  • “Hornpipe” from Water Music Suite
    This lively and graceful tune brings a celebratory yet regal atmosphere to any part of the ceremony.

  • “La Réjouissance” from Music for the Royal Fireworks.
    A lively and celebratory piece, characterized by its vibrant, triumphant melody, powerful brass sounds, and driving rhythm.

Johann Sebastian Bach

  • “Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring,” BWV 147
    A gentle and rhythmic melody frequently adapted for violin, balancing solemnity and happiness.

Johann Pachelbel

  • “Canon in D”
    The quintessential wedding piece, Pachelbel’s Canon is synonymous with bridal entrances and sets a calm, harmonious tone with its flowing, repetitive chord progression.

Each of these classical violin pieces brings a unique atmosphere, from joyful celebration to intimate reflection, making them perfect choices to personalize your wedding music.
