Appalachian journey by Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, and Mark O'Connor
Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, and Mark O'Connor play with ideas drawn from traditional American fiddle tunes on this album; the results are great fun. The traditional tunes on this album are often played at a slower tempo than that which you may be accustomed to hearing, but this fantastically talented trio fills the resulting space well, using harmonies and polyphonic lines that give the music an almost classical feel.
Yo-Yo Ma, cello; Edgar Meyer, bass; Mark O'Connor, violin. James Taylor and Alison Krauss join the trio for a song and a tune each.
