I've really enjoyed this video and all the other ones you've put on youtube, congratulations! May I ask which picture is the one at 1.45? Thanks!

[aranzoltan]

@DocMcBoc I think it's a wall painting from the Saint Nicholas curch in Tallin, Estonia.

What instrument is that Zoli? A hurdey gurdey ? Very moving ;-)

[aranzoltan]

@dohertykaki Yes Kate. Hurdy gurdy, bouzouki and whistle.

[Davccelion]

I understand the painting and coughing as sounds of the ones diying, but the murmuring? Is is the priest absolving their sins, or Death talking to the ones who are soon to join her?

[aranzoltan]

@Davccelion It's a funeral oration in old Hungarian language from the late 12nd century.

that wheezing, coughing noise just puts such a feeling through me........ so morbid and tragic. how interesting that sounds can cause such feelings in people: you have created art!!! art makes people feel something, whether that something be good or bad.

[Alyonamyself]

Just two quotes:

"OOOhhhhh, how romantic! :D :D Fantastic, atmospheric video and as usual, beautiful music."

and

"Thanks I kept seeing it but did'nt know what it was"

... sorry, but i'm so confused to see the reaction like first one. O_o

i've been thinking about the reasons and motivations.. but probably the second one is the answer?

maybe im too serious in such a dramatic questions... but 've got a hope an author supposed his video to be just respectful.

[aranzoltan]

@socenta Hajaj! Innen - onnan. A festményeket tudom: Lübecki haláltánc ( Lübecker Totentanz ) , Pieter Bruegel, A halál diadala, ( angolul Triumph of Death címen találsz rá ), valamint a tallini Szent Miklós templom egyik festménye. A metszeteket egyesével mazsoláztam össze.
