"The new trio features Carol Cook on viola and violin and Natalie Haas on cello, two incredibly bright talents in string music...Carol and Natalie are fabulous at this music, having the sound and style so right in sync with mine. It has been so much fun for me to play with them, and experiencing what it is like to have such an important personal benchmark as my Appalachia Waltz Trio pieces reach a new chapter in performance. The beauty of their tone, and intonation and the great grooves and rhythms are all so fine, and then you add in their classical music virtuosity along with their love of folk music, and their expertise in the fiddle traditions since they were little kids, and you end up with musicians that are the perfect match for my 'Appalachia Waltz' music!"
