An interesting documentary recording of clarinetist George Lewis's 1969 funeral: Requiem pour un Roi du Jazz on French Barclay. There are excerpts from the church service (the preacher really works up a head of steam) and the brass band procession, with the Olympia and Eureka Brass Bands. I don't play this one very often because it has an overdubbed narration (in French) that intrudes every time I start enjoying the music. But it's interesting, and at times quite moving.
