Give me a boat that can carry two and both shall row, my love and I. Â From a rich, vibrant 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). Â This unabashedly romantic trio for two cellos and piano is perfect for weddings and ceilidhs (or any Celtic-themed music event) as well as recitals and concerts. Â For wedding music, this arrangement is recommended as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridal march or a bridesmaid processional. Â
   As this melody has been used in multiple hymn settings, such as 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 services and other worship events, as a prelude, postlude, an offertory, interlude, special music or silent prayer accompaniment.  Key: G major.  9 pages of music (that includes separate pullout pages for cello 1 and cello 2).
