Noah talks to fiddler Jay Ungar and guitarist/pianist Molly Mason about their new recording "The Lovers' Waltz," a collection of music they've played at weddings. Molly says sometimes a tune writes itself -- as if it's always existed and the role of the composer is to uncover what's always been there. Jay Ungar is best known for his composition "Ashokan Farewell" -- the sad fiddle tune used throughout Ken Burns' documentary "The Civil War."
