A musical oasis of beauty and tranquility, Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" is arranged here as a duet for oboe and piano. The gentle, flowing nature of this elegant instrumental duet makes this Baroque music a popular, traditional choice for weddings, as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridal march or a bridesmaid processional. Also recommended for traditional church services and other worship events as a prelude, postlude, an offertory, interlude, special music and silent prayer accompaniment. Key: F major. 11 pages of music (that includes a two-page oboe part).

This collection of intermediate piano solos includes 20 arrangements of favorite classical pieces frequently used for weddings. All the songs in this collection are well-suited for processionals and recessionals of the ceremony participants (bride, groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, parents/family, flower girl, Bible boy, ring bearer, etc.). Several of these songs can also be used as part of the prelude, as interludes during candle-lighting, or as background music for a reception.

These arrangements were created to make challenging classical music more accessible for the intermediate player or easier to sight-read by more advanced players (comes in handy when asked to perform on short notice). Another feature of these arrangements is they are consistent at the intermediate to advanced-intermediate skill level throughout each piece. Many have been simplified and only include excerpts from the longer original movements. Other simplified characteristics include easier key signatures, timings, and fingerings and some melodies were modified to create a more contemporary sound.

Each of the 20 arrangements is also available separately with accompanying preview pages and audio samples.
