  • Felix Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" in C major, written in 1842, is one of the best known of the pieces from his suite of incidental music (Op. 61) to Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream. It is one of the most frequently used wedding marches, generally being played on a church pipe organ.

      When you hear it played by a full orchestra, it definitely does sound much more like a product of its time. It honestly sounds like something that could have been composed by Haydn or Mozart

      @@ganh222 JS Bach is my favorite.
      The "big league" composers everybody knows (Bach, Handel, Hayden, Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Wagner, etc.) are def not bad places to start. I also really love film scores, & think a lot of the big film composers are great as well (Korngold, Steiner, Hermann, Williams, Silvestri, Powell, & Zimmer immediately come to mind).
      If I had to pick a favorite piece, I'd either go with Bach's "Little Fugue" or the first movement to Beethoven's 5th Symphony. I'm also really partial to Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro."

    Mendelssohn was a wonderful man and a great musician. His "Scottish" symphony may be the best thing anyone ever did for Scotland! He discovered Bach, after the music of that genius had fallen into obscurity. He was a Hebrew Christian and apparently not jealous of people, a rarity in the competitive world of the arts.

      Wagner's piece has fallen out of favor recently. His piece has been replaced by Jeremiah Clarke's "Trumpet Voluntary", also called "The Prince of Denmark March", as well as several others.. Mendelssohn's is still hanging in there. We got married in 1969 and we did Clarke on the way in and Mendelssohn on the way out. We may have been ahead of the game and didn't realize it.

And now, having fought hard and worked your whole life; is now being told what you can and can't do and how much money you have to pay her by a person in a black robe in a family court? If not, shut the hell up. You're a moron. Especially when MORE than 50% of marriage end in divorce. If there was road more than 50% fatality on it, they would close the fucking road down. But marriage is okay because of Jesus I guess. Don't step to a MGTOW with your nonsense.
