Live music at a celebration of life in Calgary can carry the songs that meant something to the person you’re remembering. A pianist, a guitarist, a singer or a small string group can play as people arrive, during a slideshow or at the reception afterwards. Plan the songs, the moments and the venue, then send us your date, venue and guest count, and you can compare options with prices for musicians who are available that day.<\/p>\n
Make a list of songs the person loved, or that the family would like to hear. Send it to the musician early, and ask whether they play those songs, and whether they can learn any they don’t.<\/p>\n
Tell the musician the order of the day:<\/p>\n
Ask which moments they’d suggest live music for.<\/p>\n
Ask the venue whether live music is allowed, whether there’s a piano, where the musician can set up, and where the nearest power is. If the gathering is outdoors, ask the musician what they need for weather.<\/p>\n
Ask the musician how they keep the music at a level that lets people talk quietly, and who they should check with during the day.<\/p>\n
The price depends on how long you book, the number of musicians, whether it’s a Saturday, and travel outside Calgary.<\/p>\n
