The Undertaker's Waltz - Cacophonia- Fairytale 10. Inspiration for this.. comes from one of my own compositions. A song of which i wrote music and lyric, in 1991. The song is called *The Undertaker's Waltz*. It is a dark metal waltz. It is recorded with my band Fairytale, in the studios of danish national television in 1992. So the audio quality is ok. I play the guitar on the recording, and my first wife #;oD Is the bass player. It is a 6 minute running composition, sized 5.7 MB For those who want to listen to it...

Discovery Channel had a portraying series about the worst criminals in history. It was fascinating to watch, and try to understand it. The criminals was classified on a scale from 1 to 20.. 1 is the normal criminal....a 20 is the worst. The song is a portraying of the mind, of a 20 class criminal...on his last day, before his execution. Some countries still have active death penalty. In Denmark, the death penalty was abolished in 1930, if i remember. A 20 class criminal know he will get the death penalty for the crime he is about to commit... But they still chose to do it... and afterwards..They are not sorry... they do not feel remorse..it tell something about the human mind, don't it? *The Undertaker's Waltz* Is a song, about the last hours of a criminal, on his way to execution. About what goes on in his mind. His thoughts about meeting the creator. And he whistle and laugh in his last hours... he feel no remorse or sadness...no fear. It is pretty funny to make images for my own songs. I never thought i'd do that, when i wrote it in 1991. About the musical, technical elements of song... For those who might find music and music theory interesting. The intro is played on an acoustic harmonica.. in 3/4 and has the feeling of a waltz. Several sequences in the composition also runs in 3/4 - 6/8. Gives it a funny rhytmic feeling. The sub title of Cacophonia has a story, too. It is only related to the short guitar solo of the song. I deliberately play on all the tones, which are NOT in the chords... in a distance of a flat 5th. away from the chord tones. that provide Cacophony, meaning ugliness, unpleasant and nasty sounding...#;oD The opposite is Euphony.. meaning pleasant and beautiful sounding.#:o) Enjoy the song and the image. And thanks for all comments and fave, and general support of my gallery.
