The Sound of Music

Because music is important to virtually everyone, most funeral services feature music. It can be an entrance piece, for a time of reflection during the service and as a farewell.

Choosing the appropriate music will depend on the person whose life is being celebrated, and perhaps their acknowledged favourite music or song. There are really no restrictions on what you play – if it was the deceased’s favourite track, it will almost certainly be appropriate.

Gillions enjoys the services of several excellent organists and we have a high quality, modern organ in our chapel. Live musical tributes by family or musicians are always warmly received. If any special music is required, such as a Scots piper, harpist or soloist, we will endeavour to arrange this for you.

We have an extensive music library and can assist with most requests.
