Music for Celebrations and Special Events
Easter Music
As you might expect, Easter is Christian festival and is accompanied by Christian music. Free Easter music suggestions can be found across the internet. Some popular choices are "Jesus, thank you for the cross" and "Morning has Broken". Easter classical music is also popular with works by Mozart and Bach particularly favoured. See our church wedding music and Christian wedding songs pages for more info.
Passover Music
Jewish Passover music is often simple traditional Klezmer style similar to that of bar mitzvah music. See our Jewish wedding music page for more information about Jewish music for weddings.
St. Patrick's Day Music
Live entertainment for St. Patrick's day is often accompanied by Celtic Music Groups or Irish Music Bands which provide a lively and raucous atmosphere to complement the Guiness and whisky.
Christening Music
Choosing music for Christening can be as difficult or as easy as you make it. Obviously, a couple of hymns should be chosen but you can also pick some appropriate secular songs for the christening. Select songs that are personal to you can reflect your relationship with you child. If you are planning a wedding then please see our Christian Wedding Music page.
Chinese New Year Music
Traditional Chinese new year music plays a massive role in the celebrations, originally thought to show the influence of the harmony of the universe. This entertainment is often played on Chinese instruments and gives a definite Eastern atmosphere and ambience.
Wedding Anniversary Music
A wedding anniversary is a unique time in a couples life so it is natural that it should be celebrated. An anniversary or jubilee party can be the best way for your friends and family to come together an congratulate you. See our Wedding Music home page for all of our wedding entertainment offers.
Summer Solstice Music
The summer solstice as well as winter solstice festivals are important to druids, pagans and anyone with an interesting traditional festivals. The music is often ethereal and atmospheric.
Baptism Music
Christian music for a Baptism is fairly easy to come by. Most hymn books will have a section dedicated to baptisms which will have been carefully selected over generations. You can also choose a secular song or two as part of the ceremony.
Fathers Day / Mother Day Music
Its always hard to think of an original or special idea for Mothers and Fathers day. A good option for these celebrations is to book a solo musician like a Cocktail Pianist (if you have a piano) or a Solo Guitarist (if you don't...).
Valentines Day Music
When trying to think of something special for valentines day you must think beyond chocolates and a nice restaurant. For valentines day we would suggest a Harpist - the ultimate romantic instrument in every way.
Funeral Music
Music for a funeral is very personal and should be chosen by the family and usually includes some of the deceased's favourite songs. Organ funeral music is also very popular with most chapels being fitted with classical organs to accommodate organ music.
Thanksgiving Music / Independence Day Music
Music for these events often comes from the great American song book. There are lots of bands out there who specialise in this genre as well as numerous American song book cds.
Birthday Party Music
Whether its a surprise party or a formal birthday gathering we can help find the ideal live music for you! For a birthday party we would always suggest a classic "bit of everything" band like one of our favourites here: Party Band.
Retirement Party Music
Planning a retirement party for yourself, colleague or friend? Search the Entertainment Directory for some suitable entertainment for your retirement party.
Halloween Music
Halloween party music is full of cliches and modern tradition. There are lots of cd`s available which feature "spooky" music but we would like to suggest something like string quartet playing medieval music, in the right location thing can be a truly moving experience.
