TOD TRAUER TRAPANI - SIZILIANISCHE TRAUERMäRSCHE. EIN FILM OHNE BILDER.

Sicilian Funeral Marches.
Collected by Ben Jeger and Clemens Klopfenstein

On Good Friday, a procession of twenty people marches in circles through the
entire town of Trapani (Sicily): La Processione die Misteri.
For twenty-four hours twenty brass ensembles accompany ancient statues,
representing Christs' path of suffering until, after a long night, on the
afternoon of Easter Saturday, all becomes calm and the town waits for the
resurrection.
This is the sound recording of a night: a film without images.
