Enchant your listeners with this intermediate arrangement for woodwind quintet of the famous "Wedding March" from Felix Mendelssohn's Incidental Music Op. 61, set to William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream--instantly downloadable for your next performance. This beloved wedding music staple is most often used as a wedding recessional. This spirited arrangement, from the Romantic Era, was written for advanced high school quintets, college groups, amateur ensembles, and professional quintets.
As always, I have included an alternate bass clarinet part in lieu of a missing bassoon. Written in 1842, five years before Mendelssohn's death, this exuberant, sprightly march was commissioned by a Prussian King while Mendelssohn served as Music Director of the Gewandhaus Orchester in Leipzig, Germany. Originally composed for piano, I hope you enjoy this unique setting for winds. Add this CMP arrangement to your own wedding music collection now!
