Ceremony

What would a film be without music? A moment can have a totally different emotional impact if it is accompanied by various musics. A walk in the forest with a zen music would provide a feeling of well-being and joy while a Hitchcock film soundtrack would make this same ride worrying and full of suspense.
Starting from this observation, Claude Costa’s role becomes decisive in the choice of the musical program of your ceremony. With a vast musical culture, like all Botticelli’S artists, and a vision of the reception as a whole thanks to her training and her experience in event management, Claude will guide you in choosing a tailor-made repertoire based on your musical tastes and the highlights of your life. During the months of preparation, the numerous mail exchanges will help you to prioritize certain works and to build hypothetical repertoires. Not to mention that for a specific moment, there is the perfect music that will create the magic while it would not work for another step of the ceremony.
The final repertoire will be defined one month before the event to allow Claude to make the arrangements and so that the chosen band can provide the necessary rehearsals for an irreproachable performance.
Cérémonie catholique

Catholic or Protestant ceremony (wedding, baptism…)

Whether you choose a blessing or a mass, it is important to check with the priest or pastor his openness to different music genres. Some prefer to stay in the classical and religious repertoire, others allow film soundtracks and pop songs.
In the first case, no worries if you are not melomanes ! You can still choose a very original repertoire. There are not only two Ave Maria and your processional will not necessarily be accompanied by the usual Bridal March.
Botticelli’s artists were born with classical music. Claude will make the researches in order to find the classical works that will move you and make your ceremony unique.
Houppa

Chuppah

Claude will follow the requirements of the bridegrooms and rabbis to establish the musical program. The musical interludes will be to be agreed with the rabbi. Some prefer not to be interrupted during the celebration, others wish that we play traditional melodies between the important steps of your chuppah.

Symbolic ceremony

This ceremony built around your story can tap into all musical styles. The atmosphere you want to create will be determined primarily by the music. Tenderness, intense emotion or a festive and rhythmic recessional ? Claude will advise you for a more personal repertoire than ever !

The solo harp offers a classic repertoire making your drink reception exclusive.

From great classics such as Saint-Saëns’ “Le Swan” to films and musicals soundtracks like “Moon River”, this duet enchants guests while letting them the possibility to talk easily. An ideal atmosphere music.

The violin-guitar duo will be able to surprise with a classical repertoire or evolve between jazz, gypsy and international pop, just like the violin-piano duet.
