Appalachia Waltz by Mark OConnor is the title track from the album featuring OConnor, Yo-Yo Ma, and Edgar Meyer. The Sony Classical release debuted and then stayed for several months at the No.1 position on Billboard Magazines Classical music chart. OConnor originally composed the piece as a solo for unaccompanied violin in 1993. For the recording with Ma in 1996, OConnor and Meyer re-arranged the waltz for violin, cello and doublebass. As it currently appears in this manuscript, OConnor adapts the instrumentation for violin, viola and cello for improved playability. "Appalachia Waltz" might well be one of Mark OConnors most-loved compositions. It utilizes musical inspiration from Scandinavian and Appalachian folk fiddling, while crafted into a classical music setting. The music is suited for advanced and intermediate levels.
