Selecting Music for Memorial Services in Oklahoma Funeral Homes

Finding the right music for funeral of memorial services in Oklahoma funeral homes can seem difficult because families are often left in a state of shock when someone dies. While sometimes the recently deceased will have expressed their likes and dislikes in terms of music at some time in the past, this is not often the case, leaving family members to decide what to do about choosing music appropriate for the memorial services. Music is such an important part of all cultures and can leave a lasting impression on those left to grieve the loss of their family member. There are some easy ways to follow basic concepts when selecting funeral music that can make this process go more favorably.

Music itself plays a very important part in any life changing event such as a funeral service in Oklahoma. Music can help to establish a welcoming atmosphere, gives comfort to many people regardless of their grieving styles, and expresses themes of faith and cultural beliefs. Music can also provide opportunities for those in attendance to reflect upon the life of the person who has departed, and to bring back memories of happier times shared with their loved ones. Music is a befitting way to say goodbye to someone who means so much to you.

When choosing the music to be player at the funeral services in Oklahoma, one of the most important considerations is to make sure there is a balance between instrumental and voice pieces. This can mean playing soft instrumental sounds in the background during the eulogy or service, then having a singer to perform a piece that was one of the deceased person’s favorite songs or hymns. Guitar, strings and piano are often perfectly acceptable ways of playing music in the background so that all may enjoy the presence of their loved one’s spirit in a respectful way.

In funeral services held in Oklahoma churches, oftentimes the preferred choice of music will be that of religious hymns, congregational singing and responsive songs in which the entire church family can participate. This is a great way to give all the opportunity to express themselves through the healing power of music. Singing in many cultures, including those that incorporate religious practices, include music as a strong component. Music in the form of song can also be a form of grieving and ushering the recently deceased into the afterlife.

In some cases, people have left instructions, either verbally or in written form, to play a certain song or music artists’ work that was important to them while they were alive. This music can range from traditional spiritual music and bluegrass to more modern country and rock and roll. This choice may seem odd to those who didn’t know the person well in life, but it must be honored if this was what was requested by the person whose life you are honoring with funeral services in Oklahoma. It may bring a tear to your eyes or it may bring laughter, depending on the personality of the person and their wishes. This brings all together more closely in an intimate sharing of the person’s life so always try to play the music that meant so much to them.

There are also some songs that transcend religious overtones but are very fitting to play or perform at funeral services in Oklahoma. Sometimes these songs include a scripture from the Christian bible, but oftentimes they are not scripture based and may be about the universal beliefs of peace, love and the next realm of understanding as human beings. Christians and Jews alike typically include Psalm 23 'The Lord is my shepherd...' This prayer has numerous musical settings, both in English and Hebrew. A particularly elegant version is written in Hebrew by Gerald Cohen, called 'Adonai Roi.'.

Moving above and beyond religious affiliations, all people want to be remembered as special and worth knowing during the end of their lives. We are as significant for the love and beauty we create on this earth as much as we are remembered for the deeds we have done. The Native American poem 'I am with you still' provides a comforting reminder that those we love remain in our hearts, in the breezes that blow, in everything we choose to remember. There is also a musical piece that can be played during the recital of this poem or when sung that is very suitable for traditional funeral services in Oklahoma.

Choosing music for the funeral in Oklahoma is just as important as selecting the time and place to have a memorial service to remember the unique life of the person who has passed on. If you are in doubt about what types of music to select, its advisable that you speak with those who were closest to the dearly departed to find out what they liked to listen to. In addition, talk with a religious leader to pick a set of songs that can be performed by those in attendance or played softly in the background during the funeral services. As time passes and the sadness subsides, the music will provide a positive long-lasting memory of the life of the person who was cherished and honored at their funeral in Oklahoma.
