Funeral for a fisherman
A quirky, darkly comic take on what could befall the careless boater.
Chopin’s Piano Sonata No. 2 is a haunting, tragic work, even when it is sung by a bunch of dead fish.
The tune, which you probably know as “The Funeral March,” serves as the centrepeice of a new PSA for The Lifesaving Society of Quebec. To remind boaters to actually wear their lifejackets on the water, the Society’s agency LG2 had a chorus of caught fish provide the score of a somewhat grisly scene.
The work is appearing at hunting and fishing events in Quebec with support from a TV and social media buy.
