Kriwaczek, Rohan An Incomplete History of the Art of Funerary Violin
Duckworth 2006 0715636049 / 9780715636046 Hardcover; Pictorial Boards Fine
210pp, illustrations. Describes the curious (and, it must be said, possibly not entirely genuine) history of this secretive society, including complete musical scores from its archive. The author recounts the origin of the practice of employing a solo violinist at post-Reformation funerals; the careers of the greatest Funerary Violinists, such as Herr Hieronymous Gratchenfleiss and Pierre Dubuisson, and the 19th-century purge which led to the tradition's almost complete obliteration.
