Music

Music is an extremely important part of a funeral service and can be a great comfort at such a difficult time.

During Church Services it is usually only Hymns permitted. We can offer a choice of Harpist and Soloist or Organist and Soloist and other musicians can be arranged if required.

Please feel free to sample our resident Harpist and Soloist’s repertoire by clicking on http://www.anntuite.com/

During a Civil Service or Committal Service in a Crematorium Chapel the music is usually played from a CD and can be either religious or non-religious. In the case of a Civil Service live musicians can be arranged if required.

A selection of suggested hymns for the Catholic Funeral Mass can be viewed below. This is only a sample list designed to assist in choosing the music with the Soloist.  There are many more hymns available on which the Soloist will be pleased to offer guidance.
