Guide: Hiring A Musician, Soloist, Or Band For A Funeral Or Memorial Service

Many people choose to incorporate music or songs into a funeral or memorial service.

Music can take the form of a choir, a friend playing or singing a special song, or a recording of any music or songs that are especially meaningful.

What You Need to Know

If the funeral or memorial service will be held in a religious place of worship, that venue may have a musical group, such as a choir, or soloist that can perform. In addition, any friends or family members who play music or sing will likely be able to perform at the venue. If the funeral or memorial service will not be held in a religious place of worship or if you would like to hire musicians, a soloist, or a band, the venue will likely allow it.

If you'd like to hire a local musician, orchestra, or band we suggest asking the funeral home you're working with for options and suggestions. You can also doing a search for experienced performers in your area.
