Appalachian Journey Live In Concert (DVD) (2000)

"From their sold-out concert at New York City's Avery Fisher Hall, legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma, violinist Mark O'Connor, and bassist Edgar Meyer, along with special guests James Taylor and Alison Krauss, perform works from the trio's acclaimed albums that span many musical genres. "1B," "Emily's Reel," "Misty Moonlight Waltz," and many others are among the featured selections".

In Full Swing (2003)

"Mark O'Connor's second CD with his Hot Swing Trio is more than just a salute to the late, legendary jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli; it firmly establishes him as a bona fide jazz violin virtuoso. The capable guitarist Frank Vignola plays gypsy swing à la Django Reinhardt without sounding like a clone; bassist Jon Burr provides a perfect match for his bandmates. O'Connor's "In Full Swing" is absolutely breathtaking. Burr's pulsating "Three for All" and Vignola's lyrical "A Beautiful Friendship" are also worthwhile songs. The high-flying duo introduction to "Tiger Rag" by O'Connor and Marsalis is a meeting of two masters. Monheit's interpretations of "Misty" and "As Time Goes By" are merely average, and she doesn't loosen up enough to appreciate the fun within Fats Waller's "Honeysuckle Rose," though Marsalis makes up for her shortcomings. In any case, Mark O'Connor's Hot Swing Trio provide first-rate swing all by themselves, so adding guests isn't really necessary." (Allmusic)
