Product Description
"Give me a boat that can carry two and both shall row, my love and I." From a rich, vibrant Celtic tradition comes the classic "The Water is Wide," lovingly crafted to evoke misty Scottish landscapes with rolling green hills (you can almost smell the heather). This unabashedly romantic trio for flute, French horn and piano is perfect for weddings and ceilidhs (or any Celtic-themed music event) as well as recitals and concerts. For wedding music, "The Water is Wide" stirs the heart as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridal march or a bridesmaid processional.
This music also makes a moving prelude or offertory for traditional church services and other worship events, as a prelude, postlude, an offertory, interlude, silent prayer accompaniment or special music; the melody has been used in multiple hymn settings, including "The Gift of Love," "Though I May Speak of Bravest Fire" and as an alternate melody for "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross." Concert Key: F major. 11 pages of music (that includes separate two-page parts for flute and horn in F)
