Product Details


Product Description

"The Water Is Wide" is a Scottish folk song that is also known as "O Waly, Waly." The tune has remained very popular well into modern times with many folk singers performing it regularly. The tune was adapted in the 1970s by Hal Hopson when he adapted the text of 1 Corinthians 13 to write the hymn "The Gift of Love." This arrangement by Mark R Lewis is for 8-Bell Duet. If played as a quartet, this arrangement will not be difficult at all but possible challenges arise when both players are using 4-in-hand techniques. Even as a 4-in-hand duet, this is not a difficult arrangement. Range: C6 - C7 (also available G5 - G6)

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
