Cellist Ofra Harnoy and multi-instrumentalist Mike Herriott both began playing music as young children, and have since made records that blend the sounds of classical, jazz and pop music. "It's a very, very well known and almost overplayed piece," Harnoy says. "Except this arrangement has the little bit of funky, jazziness created by the bass, which makes it just a little bit different." Check out Ofra Harnoy and Mike Herriott's performance of the Air from Bach's Orchestral Suite No. "And Ofra, she was one of the first classical musicians to do the crossover thing with The Beatles music in the 80s."
