Early Cajun Music: "La Marche De La Noce" - Joe Falcon & Cleoma Breaux
A very beautiful tradition that the Cajuns have is the wedding march. The song, like many traditional songs, not much is known about the history and it originates hundreds of years earlier. The summer after recording "Lafayete", Joe Falcon, along with his wife-to-be, Cleoma Breaux, travel to NYC to record "La Marche De Noce" for Columbia/Okeh (#15325). The duo would compose lyrics for the first recording of this melody.
