Learning ABC's Of Music For Funeral

The song selection in a memorial service is an important decision. This is because the songs will set the mood for the entire service. Since there are no set songs which one is required to play, it is entirely up to the family members of the deceased to choose the funeral music to be played. A few tips will help you come up with a playlist.

If you will be having a religious ceremony during the funeral service, talk to the leaders who are in charge. Ask them if there is anything offensive, which should not be played at the event. They should give you guidelines on what is acceptable and what is not.

Consider the type of songs that the deceased like. If they had any favorite songs or musicians, consider including the song selection in the playlist. If the deceased had any song requests, honor their wishes and incorporate the songs they would have wanted played.

Take time to investigate and choose suitable songs. You can search online and find some leads. You can also ask for some suggestions from your friends or a professional Disc Jockey. You can also find some great song choices in hymn books.

You can have live performances or recorded songs played. Whichever option you go for, make the necessary arrangements to ensure that everything is ready on time. If you are hiring a band, DJ, choir or instrumentalists, listen to their previous recordings first. This will help you know if they will do a good job or not.

Scrutinize the song selection before the day of the memorial service. This will ensure that no offensive songs are played during the service. Check out the song lyrics to know what a specific song is talking about. Aim to provide comfort and encouragement to the bereaved through the funeral music you select.
