It's not yet June but still a great time to get married. Or attend a wedding. Or at least hear a "Rustic Wedding Symphony" from 1875 by Hungarian composer Karl Goldmark. It opens with a Wedding March in the first movement, with variations. Then a Bridal Song for the second movement, and so on through to the final dance in the fifth movement. “A Rustic Wedding Symphony” by Karl Goldmark is today’s Midday Masterpiece at 2:00 pm.
