When Bidden To The Wake Or Fair for violin and cello is a Mark OConnor arrangement of an old song from Irish musician William Shield. The arrangement was composed for the album "Liberty!" and performed with guest cellist Yo-Yo Ma. The piece was used throughout the PBS series "Liberty! The American Revolution". "By now," OConnor says, "we know how to blend our different styles so at times in this duet you cant tell which is the classical cello and which is the folk fiddle. It becomes one sound." "Liberty!" album notes author Thomas Fleming says, "it is also a unique sound, sweeter and more provocative than a human voice". The music is suited for all levels.
Original music printed from the composers manuscripts.
