For my creative sound work, I decided to write and record a funeral song. Its lyrics are going to be based on a few Christian Orthodox prayers as well as contain traditional Romanian funeral themes. It will make a great audio companion to my essay, Exploring the Role of Music in Christian Worship. I will record it at my home studio and will try to keep it as simple as possible. So far I’ve got the tile, “Groapa” which is Romanian for “Hole in the Ground”. It will portray my own funeral. This’ll be fun.
