The Lovers Waltz

As we gathered material we knew it would include 'The Lovers' Waltz,' our most requested new tune. When we began putting this album together it became obvious that this was going to be a romantic album, as well as an eclectic one. The idea was to focus on our own compositions, as well as some longtime favorite melodies by other artists. Our list included an Irish air ('Give Me Your Hand'), a Fats Waller Song ('Honey on the Moon"), a Klezmer classic ('Chosen Challe Mazeltov'), plus some gorgeous waltzes and fiddle tunes. Also, the album was mostly dance music from a wide variety of different traditions, such as a Finnish Waltz ('Metsakukkia'), a '40s swing tune ('It's All In Your Mind') and a Cajun two-step ('Louisiana Wedding Bells').
