Jewish Wedding Music performed with a Chazan.
The ceremony itself (known as The Chuppah) remains the part of the wedding where Jewish music is most likely to feature. There are a number of different tunes which are used to mark the entrance of the bride; the most popular include a choral song, Baruch Chaba (which translates as: 'blessed is he') and the instrumental piece Eshet Chayil (translated as 'a woman of valour').
David Giardino Music specialize in providing live music for a Jewish Wedding from the ceremony through to the reception and wedding party.
Our Cantors and String Ensembles are now available
together to perform at your event.
