THE
ART OF FUNERARY VIOLIN - modern recordings from
the Funerary Violin cannon.
"The
Art of Funerary Violin" presents a selection of works from the
great masters of Funerary Violin dating all the way back to George Babcotte's
monumental Dirge, performed in 1586 for the funeral of Sir Philip
Sydney. It includes works by Addleston, Meunier, Gratchenfleiss, Sudbury,
Duibuisson and Eaton, covering the entire period when the Art was at the
very centre of funerary ritual. The music is performed by members of the
Guild of Funerary Violinists, under the direction of Rohan Kriwaczek,
and is occassionally accompanied by Tobias James on bass drum.
