About this arrangement

Small ensemble Horn,Oboe,Piano - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.523082 Composed by Traditional Celtic Melody. Arranged by John A. Dempsey. Celtic,Easter,Irish,Multicultural,Spiritual,Wedding,World. 13 pages. John A. Dempsey #3115887. Published by John A. Dempsey (A0.523082). "Give me a boat that can carry two and both shall row, my love and I."  From a vibrant, rich Celtic tradition comes the memorable 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 oboe, horn in F and piano is perfect for weddings and ceilidhs (or any Celtic-themed music event) as well as recitals and concerts.  For weddings, this arrangement is recommended as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridal march or a bridesmaid processional.         Because this 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," this music is also effective for traditional church service and other worship events, as a prelude, postlude, an offertory, interlude, special music or silent prayer accompaniment.  Concert Key (Piano): Bb major.  Horn Key: F major.  Oboe Key: Bb major.
