Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Marion Scott
Letter No.: VWL4611
13, Cheyne Walk,
Chelsea, S.W.3.
[1 Feb 1922]
Dear Miss Scott
This is rather a difficult question – could you hear the 4tet and judge of it. If G.1 was able to hear it & rouse himself to criticize it, it might be good for him – if not, then it seems to me he wd be no worse
I feel sure that Jacob2 has charged correctly.
Yrs sincerely
R Vaughan Williams
1. Ivor Gurney. Marion Scott was a close friend and advocate for Gurney one his health deteriorated.
2. Gordon Jacob – perhaps he had arranged or completed a quartet by Gurney.
