For your ceremony, I will perform two to five selections to inspire your audience to feel the significance of your life event. Together, we will select what you would like performed and when.
A typical wedding ceremony may look like:
Prelude - Panis Angelicus
Seating - Ave Maria
Processional of the Bride - A Thousand Years
Recessional - God Only Knows
A funeral may look like:
Prelude - Pie Jesu (Faure)
Hymn - Amazing Grace
Recessional - Shall we gather at the River.
These are just suggestions and all the repertoire available with short notice is on the set list page. Requests outside the repertoire list are negotiable with ample preparation time.
In her final semester of her Master's degree at Bowling Green State University, Carolyn Anderson is an up and coming performer in classical, sacred and opera music. She received her Bachelor's from Oberlin Conservatory, one of the most intensive training programs for classical singers. She has received awards from the YoungArts Foundation, Interlochen Center for the Arts and National Association of Teachers of Singing. She was a Studio Artist with Chicago Summer Opera in 2018.
She sings every Sunday as a Worship Leader at First Presbyterian Church in Findlay, OH and honors their saints through song in funerals and memorial services. She frequently sang the National Anthem for Division 1 sporting events before the the pandemic.
My service and fees do not cover a pianist or an organist to accompany me. If you need help finding a pianist or organist, I can recommend some to contact. However, I cannot guarantee a booking.
A microphone and sound system may enhance your event, but is not required.
