Songs To Sing At A Funeral


How To Choose Funeral Music

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 there will be a religious service, find out if there are any guidelines you are supposed to follow. Check with a clergy member or anyone else who is in charge of the ceremony, so as to avoid playing songs that may be offensive to some people. You can also ask them to give you some guidelines of what is appropriate.

Take into consideration the song choices that the deceased like. You can add them to the playlist. You can also add songs from artists that they liked. If the deceased had many any special requests before they died, try and incorporate the songs into the program.

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.

Recorded songs or live performances are both acceptable. This is provided that you make arrangements for the performers and those in charge of music to be ready on the burial day. Inform them early about what they are expected to do and how long they will have to perform.

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.
