Evan Stover arranged "Ashokan Farewell" for Waltz of the Wind, the second album by the band Fiddle Fever, 1984. Fiddle – Matt Glaser, Russ Barenberg; Fiddle, Mandolin – Jay Ungar; Fiddle, Viola – Evan Stover; Guitar – Molly Mason, Russ Barenberg He took it with him when he joined Walt Michael & Co, who were very welcome guests at the Girvan Folk Festival. Walt Michael - hammered dulcimer/pencil, Frank Orsini - fiddle, Evan Stover - fiddle/viola, John Kirk - bass (I think!) In 1984, filmmaker Ken Burns heard "Ashokan Farewell" and was moved by it. He used it in two of his documentary films: Huey Long (1985), and The Civil War (1990), which features the original recording by Fiddle Fever in the beginning of the film. Wikipedia
