  • Adam, go here to find out everything you ever wanted to know about this beautiful song. You do an incredible outstanding rendition of it. Jay would be proud. Thank you for posting.

  • Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!! I am totally at a loss for words and for me that's saying a lot.

  • Adam,

    It was actually written fairly recently by Jay Ungar. It's connection with the Civil War is that it was the background music for many of the scenes, including the soulful rendition of the Sullivan Ballou Letter, of Ken Burn's Civil War documentary.

  • :) you and your Dad are both incredible Adam! Wish I could see more of your sister too! * * * * *

  • Hi Adam. I am a beginner fiddler, but I want to say you are one of the best fiddlers I have heard! Where did you learn your skills?

  • Top playing! Give 5 stars, always! ;-)

  • wonderfull!!!!!!!!!!!!greeting­'s from france!!!!!josé.

  • Very nice tune. You sure have a great second on the guitar too. I hope someday you could film that feller playing with you at the same time. I'd love to see you both. Again, thanks for sharing this beautiful tune.

  • my goodness thank you for that great comment..sorry it took so long for me to find it...I love this song. I thought it was an old song from civil war but actually not..i think..if you have any information on this song pleasee let me know...

  • Actually, it is a 1982 piece by Jay Ungar. It was used in a TV series on the Civil War in the U.S. which is what made it well known...and the reason most who hear it at first think it is a civil war piece.

  • That's right, it was a PBS series on the Civil War - nice job Adam and Dad!

  • You have such great tone.... I love to listen to your fiddling. Keep the video's comming.
