About this arrangement

Trumpet Quartet - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.523703 Composed by Traditional Celtic Melody. Arranged by John A. Dempsey. Celtic,Easter,Irish,Spiritual,Traditional,Wedding. 20 pages. John A. Dempsey #3685351. Published by John A. Dempsey (A0.523703). "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 green rolling hills (you can almost smell the heather).  This unabashedly romantic brass quartet for Bb trumpet is perfect for weddings and ceilidhs (or any Celtic-themed music event) as well as recitals and concerts.  As wedding music, "The Water is Wide" stirs the heart as a prelude, a bridal march, a bridesmaid processional and unity candle accompaniment.  As sacred music, it's effective as a prelude, an offertory, silent prayer accompaniment or special music, since 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."  16 pages of music (that includes the score and separate two-page pullout parts for trumpet 1, trumpet 2, trumpet 3 and trumpet 4).  Concert Key: F major.  Trumpet Key: G major.
