Woodsongs 548: Mark O'Connor&The Appalachia Waltz Trio and special surprise guest Tommy Emmanuel - a podcast by The Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour Vodcast

MARK O�CONNOR is a multi-Grammy-winning violinist and composer who is widely recognized as one of the most gifted contemporary composers in America, and one of the brightest talents of his generation. He's studied and recorded with some of the 20th Century's greatest musicians, including Stephane Grappeli, Benny Thomasson, and Yo Yo Ma. Along the way, between these many marvelous musical extremes, Mark absorbed knowledge and influence from the multitude of musical styles and genres he studied. Now he has melded and shaped these influences into a new American Classical music, and is perpetuating his vision of an American School of string playing. Tommy Emmanuel is one of Australia's most respected musicians. The legendary guitarist has a professional career that spans almost five decades and continues to intersect with some of the finest musicians throughout the world. Guitar legend Chet Atkins was one of the first to inspire Emmanuel to try this"fingerpicker"style as a child. Decades later, Atkins himself became one of Emmanuel's biggest fans.
