Danny Boy

A lush arrangement for strings and tenor of the hauntingly beautiful Danny Boy

Title: Danny Boy

Composer: Traditional/Frederic Weatherly/Tim Berens

Description: Danny Boy is a lush arrangement of the Irish classic for strings and tenor. It begins with a rich introduction by the strings. The tenor sings the first verse, accompanied by gentle strings. The strings play the melody in the second verse, changing key to A-flat halfway through. The tenor sings the final verse, which builds to a high C at the piece’s climax. It ends with a whisper, “Oh, Danny Boy I love you so.”

Have plenty of tissues on hand for your audience when you play Danny Boy.
