Cortège funebre - (2011)
for organ
A somber procession in C sharp minor proceeds, the pedals softly beating beneath long lines with inner voices drawing dissonance to harmonic conclusions. Two episodes, one of melodic contour and a second of harmonic cadences, break the processional's darker mood as if with remembrances from former times.
