Description:
The folk song, "A poor wayfaring stranger" is a very popular gospel song that originated in the USA at the beginning of the 19th century.
The work was originally composed for cello and guitar, and then later reworked for violin and guitar. The whole thing is a free fantasy in the old style, which gradually turns towards American "blue-grass music" towards the end. I learned to love this music while traveling in the southern states of the USA. (Vivienne Olive)
