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 memorable tune "The Water is Wide," lovingly crafted to evoke misty Scottish landscapes and rolling green hills (you can almost smell the heather). This unabashedly romantic trio for Bb clarinet, viola and piano is perfect for weddings and ceilidhs (or any Celtic-themed music event) as well as recitals and concerts. As wedding music, it's recommended as a prelude, bridal march, bridesmaid processional or unity candle accompaniment.

Also makes touching sacred music (a prelude, an offertory, silent prayer accompaniment or special music) for church services and other worship events, as its 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." 12 pages of music (that includes separate two-page parts for clarinet and viola). Concert Key: F major.
