O'Connor, Mark - Butterfly's Day Out for Mandolin, Cello, and Bass - Bass - Digital Download

Butterfly's Day Out for mandolin/misc. instr., cello and doublebass by O'Connor is on the album "Appalachia Waltz" featuring Yo-Yo Ma and Edgar Meyer. The piece was one of the stand-out cuts getting a wide variety of radio play, bringing the trio's music to new audiences. Written originally for the mandolin, it surely is one of O'Connor's most memorable mandolin melodies. With the aid of Edgar Meyer arranging the fabulous cello and bass solo sections, the piece can be performed in a variety of instrumental settings. The mandolin part could be also covered by guitar, piano, harp or most any chordal instrument. The piece was named by a young music student at an inner-city camp for under-privileged youths. At O'Connor's workshop, he performed his new piece on the mandolin and asked for the kids to help him name it. The title, "Butterfly's Day Out" helped O'Connor complete his vision for the tune. The whole experience also inspired the idea for O'Connor to start his own Fiddle Camp now held annually in Tennessee. Digital version is available to download immediately after purchase.
