The music draws upon my solo contrabass practice, translated to the violin via the cello — a process developed in close collaboration with David Moran. The title comes from Rohan Kriwaczek’s eccentric book An Incomplete History of The Art of The Funerary Violin. The piece is a continuation of my interest in transferring and transposing musical materials from bodies to bodies, instruments to instruments, and situations to situations.
