Ashokan Farewell Duet Violin and Viola

This is Jay Ungar's Ashokan Farewell on violin and viola. We decided to play this song after watching Ken Burn's PBS Civil War Series. I am playing this with my sister (kokamo77).

@missnicole214 I wish I could help, but I don't have the music anymore. Sorry! You can probably find it on Jay Ungar's website or a sheet music store. You might have to transcribe the music from violin to viola though.

Nice job. I like your tempo and uneven eighths and hammer ons and pull offs for the first go 'round. I hate it when people wanna play this real slow and sweet like. Barf. I like it like a fiddle tune, not classical. With some style. Nice job.
