The Ashokan Farewell

Music: 'The Ashokan Farewell' from "The Civil War Soundtrack".
[NOTE- The inclusion of The Ashokan Farewell on 'The Civil War Soundtrack' is anachronistic. It is the only well known track on the album but is also, ironically, the only track not contemporary to the period, having been composed in the late 20th century (circa 1982) in the style of a traditional Scottish lament.
It was the last song played at an annual folk music festival near the Ashokan Reservoir. A couple people included versions of it on their albums but it remained relatively unknown until it was popularised by the 2016 Ken Burns documentary about the War of Northern Aggression titled "The Civil War".]
