'''K-91''' is the [[Shunsuke Kikuchi catalogue|Kanzenshuu catalogue number]] assigned to an unreleased piece of background music (BGM) arranged by [[Shunsuke Kikuchi]] for the ''[[Dragon Ball (anime)|Dragon Ball]]'' anime in 1986. The piece debuted in [[Dragon Ball Episode 10]] which was broadcast on '''30 April 1986'''.

==Overview==
K-91 is a short arrangement of a well-known melody from the second movement of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frédéric_Chopin Fryderyk Chopin]'s [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Sonata_No._2_(Chopin) ''Sonata in B-flat Minor'' Op. 35], "the most famous funeral march in the world".<ref name="kallberg">Kallberg, Jeffrey. "Chopin's March, Chopin's Death". ''19th Century Music''. Berkeley: University of California Press, Summer 2001. (pp. 12-17)</ref> Chopin himself appears to have resisted calling it a funeral march, referring to it only as a "march" in his personal correspondence and insisting that the first edition (where it was called a ''Marche funèbre'', perhaps by his publisher) be corrected to ''Marche''; however the piece is firmly within the funeral march genre, and Chopin is well-known to have simply disliked overly descriptive titles for his pieces.<ref name="kallberg"/>

The arrangement of the Chopin melody is simple, but a few facts suggest that the piece was personally arranged by Kikuchi:

*The piece is transposed to the arc's main key of F minor;
*The instrumentation and performance are consistent with Kikuchi's studio musicians;
*This is one of three well-known pieces arranged by Kikuchi for [[Dragon Ball Episode 10|episode 10]], and his arrangement of the ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaws_(film) Jaws]'' theme ([[K-94]]) has his compositional marks all over it.

K-91 is given the title "The Death March?!" on ''kenisu's Magicant'',<ref>{{Cite web|URL=https://kenisu.webs.com/dragonballbgm.htm|Website=The Suburbs of kenisu's Magicant|Title="The DragonBall BGM Daizenshuu"|Date=11 June 2008|AccessDate=30 June 2019}}</ref> the most common source for fan titles of [[Shunsuke Kikuchi|Kikuchi]]'s compositions.
