GUEST,henryp	Ashokan Farewell - A Scottish Lament (??) (126* d)	RE: Ashokan Farewell - A Scottish Lament (??)	12 Aug 24
GUEST, RA; That's a splendid sentiment! Alas, not all the messages posted on this thread are as charitable; WorldCat lists far more different formats and arrangements for that piece of shit than I have the patience to sift through. It was written to be played en masse by a fiddle school (as their closing number). The tune was not intended to have interpretive subtleties. I have an ambition to play it as a jig to get it over with faster but haven't figured out how yet. "Ashokan Farewell" was published by Mel Bay on 1 January 1983. Must have made Ungar a fair bit in that form, before the Civil War royalties started rolling in.
