"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 romantic duet for alto sax and piano is perfect for recitals, concerts, ceilidhs and any other Celtic-themed music event as well as concerts and recitals.   As wedding music, "The Water is Wide" is recommended as a prelude, a bridesmaid processional or unity candle accompaniment.            This instrumental music is also recommended  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 to "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross."  Suggested worship uses: prelude, postlude, offertory, interlude, silent prayer accompaniment and special music.  6 pages of music (that includes a separate two-page alto sax part).  Concert Key (Piano): F major. Alto Sax Key: D major. This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
