Kokkonens String Quartets are the perfect appetizer for burned human skin and brainsubstance squirted on the walls. Kreneks 2. Sinfonie paints a perfect destroyed landscape of houses in ruins, destroyed families, stinking dead bodies, blood in puddles on the streets, burned trees and dead fish in the sea, and dead birds in the air. Seriously though; Some slow movement from Mahlers 9 would be a perfect lament to a tradgedy, and is probably what I would find suitable to play at such an occasion. Wasn't the helicopter attack in the film "Apocalypse" accompaigned by this dramatic music "Ride of the Walkueres"? So music has been used to talk about disaster. Mats Norrman [log in to unmask]
