MASTER PLAYLIST
2018
• Revision #1
• Date: 04.17.18
The J. Ciampi Events Master Playlist is constantly evolving with new additions and
updates. The material represented here is extremely time tested and proven to inspire
your guests to enjoy a one of a kind celebration. For ease, the material is broken out
categorically as ceremony, cocktail, dinner and dance sets to demonstrate
selections that generally are requested to be performed during a certain segment of
your event.
Of course, there may be tunes that you wish to have played at your event that you
don’t see here. I try to be as accommodating and flexible as possible. This is
something that I am more than happy to discuss and there is a high likelihood that we
may already know it or we can add it within a very short request window!
However, you are encouraged to not look at this list and determine what is missing.
Perhaps, try to use this as a guide to understand that many years of diverse event
experience and my choice of selections are a result of what really works for a large
varied demographic. Of course, new tunes come along all the time and I certainly
work hard to stay current and in synch with all of your wishes so therefore, this
playlist endures frequent updates and additions
