Question
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtIevrSOb8c this is a link to a song that I'm looking to find out who is the composer, what is the song. It is about 6 minutes into the clip and it has violins and a cello maybe? playing in the precede to the wedding ceremony. Thank you if you can help me.
Yes, violins and cello. I have never heard the piece, alas. It doesn't sound like a "classical" piece. I am thinking it is something written for the movie.
I suggest you google to get the details of the production (director, costumer, etc.). If you are lucky, there will be a credit for musical director or something like this. Sometimes the notation such as " [song title] sung by [artist]" appears in the credits, too, and that's your jackpot!
Also search on Adam Sandler and other actors. There may be a link that will lead you to the credits.
Or, try "music" and "Wedding Singer." (You may already have googled, of course.)
Another option is to rent the movie and watch the credits.
Sorry I can't tell you the name. Try these "leads". mb

>>*****IMPORTANT NOTE*****<<: I do not answer questions marked "private." I don't want to type the same thing to someone else later if I typed it to you already! If you mark your request "private," I will send it back to you requesting you to remove the "private" flag. Thanks for your understanding. Remember, I'm a volunteer.
My answers are not toss-offs. If I don't know the answer, I will do my best to find it.
I have many requests to identify a piece of music. If I can't identify it, I will tell you (1) what composer I think it is; (2) what composer or composers I think it is not; (3) what style period, genre, etc. I think it is or is not. And give you any other help I can to help you find the answer.
Please find a clear clip. In the interest of good computer hygiene, I will not download a clip. Nor will I go to a site where I must "register" in order to hear the clip. Please mount the clip on a public site for which you can give me a direct URL. Thanks for your understanding in this. Remember, I'm a volunteer!
Students, I do NOT do homework questions. The purpose of answering questions on assignments is not only to learn the information, but to LEARN HOW TO FIND IT. Re-read chapter. Look in the index. Look in the references given at the end of the chapter or elsewhere in the book. You also probably can find the answer using Google. Don't be lazy. I wouldn't be doing you any favors by doing your homework for you! I already know the answer. You don't. You need to find it. MORE IMPORTANTLY, you need to learn HOW to find it. That's the whole purpose of education, after all!
