As a string player, I regret to inform you that all string players hate that piece with the fiery passion of a thousand red-hot suns. But since it was for your wedding, I'm sure they were happy to do it anyway.

I like that song, too. But every time I hear it, I think of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM

Well, my aunt and cousins didn't have a lot to say about it.
After the vows and while we were signing the papers they then played 'Spring' from Vivaldi's Four Seasons symphony. ![]()

I know I walked out of the church to Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPeVIuRjUi4 I think I walked into the church with Bach (Joy). I divorced to Offspring's Low Self Esteem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bueuGw47IG0 ![]()

My sister had a little zither-like instrument with sheet music that fit behind the strings. One of the songs was Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. If you played it backwards, it sounded like the theme to Jurassic Park.

I had one of those. It's still around here somewhere. Mine was called a Zippy Zither, and it came with the songs shaped like the instrument that you put behind the strings, like you said.
Ooh, I found pictures. I still have the zither but no music.

I would say more like a harp, as it is a plucking instrument with no bridge, but not much like either.
My sisters was more like this one than Shawnee123's, but the same basic idea.
