Wedding Music Prelude to the Te Deum MARC-ANTIONE CHARPENTIER History has placed Marc-Antoine Charpentier (1643-1704) as one of 17th-century's most gifted composers, and the finest oratorio composer of his time. This piece comes from the Prelude to Charpentier's great Te Deum, and it makes a magnificent processional for any size wedding party. It can be played with trumpet(s) and organ as heard here, or by the organ alone. |
