So your brother Ben is getting married and you offer to oversee, arrange and Musically Direct his wedding… simple! Well it would be normally… but this is no ordinary brother…

Organising the Organist was relatively easy having been at school with some superb players. Mark Browne was duly appointed who is a previous Organ Scholar of Canterbury Cathedral and played superbly.

Ben wanted something a little unconventional during the Signing of the Register…

…more specifically Take That’s ‘Greatest Day.’

Having just said that he wanted me to play it as a solo on the piano I decided to go one large step further and try and find a choir!

Step forward the fantastic girls from Downe House School in Berkshire who after only one rehearsal and a lot of hard work sang beautifully and added a perfect ambiance to the service.
