A funeral march (Marche funèbre, Trauermarsch) is a march, usually in a minor key, in a slow "simple duple" metre, imitating the solemn pace of a funeral procession. Some such marches are often considered appropriate for use during funerals and other sombre occasions, the most well-known being that of Chopin. Handel uses the name Dead March.

@MrsBoss28 ... It isn't an arrangement ... It's just a 3-minute excerpt from the slow movement of Beethoven's "Eroica" Symphony.
