wedding musicand was played at the 1981 wedding of
Charles, Prince of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer. This

trumpet, string orchestra and organ by Sir Henry Wood,
was incorrectly attributed for years toHenry Purcell.
It is now known to have been the work of Clarke.
Electronic wind instruments, also known as MIDI wind instruments or electronic woodwinds, are devices that combine the traditional playing method of wind instruments with digital technology. These instruments provide musicians with the ability to produce a wide range of synthetic sounds and imitate other wind instruments, while using a blowing technique and fingerings similar to those of traditional acoustic instruments.
