jfdg Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Does anyone here know of music that would be good for paying after a baptism service? Im due to play one soon, and was told that a bach p+f wouldn't be ideal. Does anyone know what might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andrew Butler Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I always go for something approachable, due to the "non-churched" who are always there, and not too loud so as not to frighten the baby! For the baptism of the son of the local "Blue Cross" people some years ago I arranged and played the theme from "All Creatures Great and Small". I I played it again at the crem last week for the funeral of the mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
