Six Studies in English Folksong by Ralph Vaughan Williams (arr. Joseph Scheer)

Beth Dunkel, viola
Susan Robinson, harp
IBIS: A Chamber Music Society have begun appearing at venues that are unusual for their neighborhood-focused classical music concerts, and their latest was at the legendary IOTA Club & Cafe in Clarendon. For the first set, IBIS co-founder Joseph Scheer arranged this work for his wife Susan Robinson on harp, and for the amazing Beth Dunkel on viola.
This video is the complete performance of the work, unedited, using a simple one-camera setup that peered up from the stage's edge. You'll hear an occasional clink of silverware and tumbling ice cubes, but that's just part of the soundtrack to this innovative way of presenting classical music.

In my opinion, the 4th movement is one of the most beautiful pieces ever written. Heard it on my local classical channel and bought the set of sheet music. It is enchanting, that piece.. speaks to me

She has taught me so much. I am a violist myself and because of this video i have been able to learn and memories the six studies in english folksong. So I thank the person who posted this video and i thank the violist and harp players as well. Beautiful peace and such amazing skill from those two.
