Jay Ungar
Jay Ungar composes and performs music that draws strongly on American musical roots. His Ashokan Farewell, the Grammy-winning theme for Ken Burns' PBS series The Civil War, has become an instant classic. Jay and his wife and musical partner Molly Mason host their own Public Radio program, have composed film and television scores, appeared on numerous recordings, and are frequent guests on Garrison Keillor's American Radio Company.
Their Fiddle And Dance Workshop at Ashokan, a rustic Catskill Mountains camp for traditional music, is world-renowned.
