Wedding Music - a quotation:  Carlisle   

An example of what has been written about wedding music groups-

The manner of the conveyance of sounds, which is as it were the basis of music, is unintelligible. For what can be more strange, than that the rubbing of a little Hair and Cat-gut together, should make such a mighty alteration in a Man that sits at a distance? Jeremy Collier (1650—1726) 4n Essay ofMus irk, 1702
