The Ungar/Mason Family Band

It is with great pleasure that we welcome Jay Ungar and Molly Mason back to the Jaqua Concert Hall and far too many years. Jay and Molly achieved international acclaim when their performance of Jay's composition "Ashokan Farewell" became the musical hallmark of Ken Burns' PBS documentary The Civil War. The soundtrack won a Grammy and "Ashokan Farewell", inspired by Jay and Molly's Ashokan Fiddle Dance Camps in New York's Catskill Mountains, was nominated for an Emmy. In recent years, Jay and Molly have reached an ever-widening audience through their appearances on Great Performances, A Prairie Home Companion, their own public radio specials and through their work on film soundtracks such as Brother's Keeper and Legends of the Fall. In concert, Jay and Molly welcome audiences with their comfortable sense of fun, and a repertoire of traditional tunes and Ungar-Mason originals spanning two centuries and two continents.
