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 tune "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 two flutes and piano is perfect for ceilidhs, other Celtic-themed music events, concerts and recitals. As wedding music, "The Water is Wide" stirs the heart as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridal march or a bridesmaid processional. This arrangement also makes a touching prelude, postlude, an offertory, interlude, special music and silent prayer accompaniment for traditional church services and other worship events, as the melody has been used in multiple hymn settings, including "The Gift of Love," "Though I May Speak with Bravest Fire" and as an alternate melody for "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross." Key: F major. 9 pages of music (that includes separate one-page pullout parts for flute 1 and flute 2)
