Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Colin Kirkpatrick. Celtic,Holiday,Love,Wedding. Score and parts. 11 pages. Colin Kirkpatrick Publications #4833813. Published by Colin Kirkpatrick Publications (A0.522242).The Water Is Wide (also known as O Waly, Waly) is an old folk song of Scottish origin and like so many other folk songs exists in many variants. The lyrics partly date back to the 1600s but the song remains ever-popular today. This attractive arrangement is for flute, B flat clarinet and piano and is intended for intermediate players and for clarinet players who can work easily around the "break". The arrangement would be useful for student or professional recitals, end-of-semester concerts or would make a popular encore number for a concert. It would make a popular addition to any events with a Scottish flavor or romantic themes. The imagery of the lyrics describes the challenges of love and has been reflected in the lyrical clarinet part of this arrangement which also makes considerable use of the chalumeau register. The folk song is the same one that the British composer Benjamin Britten arranged for voice and piano. This new arrangement is sure to go down well with audiences.
