Peace on Four Strings

Music


Happy summer, everyone! 

Today's episode is a live performance given by a wonderful duo (Mark Evans, cello and Charlie Nilles, bass) from the National Symphony Orchestra.  This is their own arrangement of a piece originally written for violin and cello.  The lower voice captures the rocking rhythm of the cradle, while the melody reminds me of a lullaby. 

 

Performed by:

Mark Evans, cello

Charlie Nilles, bass
