Listening to the Lumiere String Quartet's "Classical Wedding Music," I was alternately squealing with delight ("this was played at MY wedding!") and shedding tears of joy ("this was played at MY wedding!"). Lumiere has done a masterful job of translating these classic pieces to the quartet form. The sound is rich and full. Yes, it works if you're listening for wedding music, but what makes the CD so delightful is that it serves beautifully as chamber music . . . even outside the wedding context. There's something for everyone here -- from the sweet and delicate "Air from Suite No. 3" to the triumphant and majestic "Trumpet Voluntary/Prince of Denmark March." A treat to listen to, whether you're getting married, got married, or have no intention of getting married and just like fine music expertly played!

I found this CD beautiful and inspiring. When my great niece marries next summer, I'm going to send this CD to her. I know she will love it as much as I do. It deserves (5) STARS!!!

Is a great product, the sound is of good quality and has an excellent selection of 35 tracks. A superb job by the Lumiere String Quartet with this compilation of classical music that is well formed and elegantly played. We bought the CD for our wedding and the songs we chose went wonderfully with the main stages of the ceremony.

The music on these CDs is exactly what I had in mind. The beautiful music will fill the high celing of the church and everyone will enjoy it. The pieces are well done and sound wonderful. I love them!

This is exactly what I thought it would be. All the music arranged on it is also as I expected. The musicians are brilliant. If you are previewing music for your wedding (or most of these pieces can be used for other events) I recommend listening to this. Having said that I should say that this is an anytime album for me!

I was never much into the classic but this cd is very relaxing,calming and very well done. I bought this cd to use at my daughter's wedding and as it turns out I listen to it in my car. I'm still a child of the 60's and 70's but I truly enjoy the serenity of this cd. It's a nice calming change.

This is a truly practical collection of music you can actually use at your wedding. Because it involves original works and arrangements for a stribg quartet, you can think of having live music at your wedding. (There is always a string quartet -- pro or amateur - in the neighborhood that would be delighted to play these wonderful melodies. Worse case: the record sound is great and you can play the CD for a minimum ceremony and still feel you've done the right thing!

This was a well thoughtout group of wedding music and the arrangements and performances were excelent!!
