Viking Funeral


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
'Viking Funeral' utilizes some medieval Scandinavian techniques (like parallel
fifths etc.), although it's not a strict stylization. The scoring is very simple to
maintain an archaic effect. Primal timpani rhythms add a bit of drive and solo boy
voice, along with chanting male choir, makes the music more emotional.
Curiously, somehow I managed the whole thing without a single brass instrument!
