Funeral Games in Honor of Arthur Vincent Louri??? explores the varied aesthetic impulses and ever-evolving personal motivations of Russian composer Arthur Louri???. A St. Petersburg native allied with the Futurist movement and profoundly sympathetic to Silver Age decadence, Louri??? was swept away by the Revolution; he surfaced as a Communist commissar of music before landing in Europe and America, where his career foundered.
