Ashokan Farewell on Cello

I had never known what the haunting there from The Civil War is called -- it is the Ashokan Farewell.
David Nielsen on cello:



Here's the original, by the way, played by Jay Ungar, who wrote it, playing with the Jay Ungar and Molly Mason Family Band (Molly (on guitar) is Jay's wife, Ruth Ungar (on violin) is Jay's Daughter, and Michael Merenda (on banjo) is Ruth's husband).
