The Water Is Wide SAB - American Folk Song Gilpin Greg Alfred 47734

Greg suggests performing his moody setting of the enduring folk song ìwith longing and mysteryî---a fitting approach for this creative re-harmonization. A hushed layering of the first four melodic notes provides the gentle introduction and pensive closing for this uniquely wistful arrangement. Rich choral sonorities, with just a touch of dissonance, emerge when the piece arrives at its ìlove is handsomeî peak.
