AMERICAN CLASSICS

JAY UNGAR & MOLLY MASON are musicians of enormous talent. Their love for music is infectious, and their expertise is superlative. With violin, mandolin, guitar, banjo and piano - not to mention their beautiful vocals - the two delight audiences wherever they go.

On stage, Mason and Ungar complement each other like a finely crafted fiddle and bow. Together they weave a rich postmodern musical magic carpet on which listeners may vicariously glide back in time and experience first-hand the sonorous riches of traditional music.

-David S. Rotenstein, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Jay Ungar and Molly Mason play music from the heart which reminds us of the best in all of us.

-Ken Burns, producer of PBS' "The Civil War"

Jay and Molly make music that is simple and overwhelming . . . joyful and full of feeling . . . an apotheosis of American traditional music.

-Garrison Keillor, host and creator of
"A Prairie Home Companion"

Jay Ungar . . . is almost without peer as a composer of fiddle tunes. [He is] blessed with that rare knack for making his melodies move in ways that stir the listener's longings.

-Geoffrey Himes, editorial review for Amazon.com

As composers, virtuosi and folklorists, this duo light up the concert stage and are a sure-fire hit for all music loving audiences.

-David Amram, noted American composer,
folk singer and jazz musician
