Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Colin Kirkpatrick. Holiday,Love. Score and parts. 11 pages. Colin Kirkpatrick Publications #3691223. Published by Colin Kirkpatrick Publications (A0.522216).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 oboe (also playable on flute), bassoon and piano and is intended for intermediate players. The arrangement is intended for student or professional recitals, end-of-semester concerts or would make a popular encore number for a concert. The imagery of the lyrics describes the challenges of love and has been reflected in the lyrical bassoon part of this arrangement. The folk song is the same one that the British composer Benjamin Britten arranged for voice and piano. This new arrangement is certain to be popular with audiences.
