A Selection of Instrumental Funeral Music
Music seems to say what the heart has trouble finding the words for.
A formal funeral may include a selection of music by Bach, Chopin, Fauvre, Brahms, or Schubert - often played on the organ or by a single pianist, guitarist, flutist, or vocalist.
It is perfectly acceptable in some settings to play a tape of your favorite compositions.
Here are a number of instrumental music selections, mostly classical, for services both formal and informal that I have collected over the years.
The Soundtrack from On Golden Pond
Requiem by Mozart
Angus Dei by the Vienna Boys Choir
The Waltz of Sleeping Beauty
Chopin Funeral March
Dance of the Blessed Spirits by Gluck
Preludes Chopin Op.28
Elegy by Faure
Air on the G String - Bach
Death of Mufasa from The Lion King
An Ending by Brian Eno
