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 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 duet for trombone and piano is perfect for weddings, ceilidhs, other Celtic-themed music events, recitals and concerts. As wedding music, The Water is Wide stirs the heart as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridesmaid processional, bridal march and wedding recessional.
Also recommended as a prelude, an offertory, silent prayer accompaniment or special music for traditional church services and other worship events, as 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. Key: G major. 7 pages of music (that includes a separate two-page pullout trombone part).
