Apprentice Level
This striking orchestration of the Northern Irish melody that underlies the song "Danny Boy" offers intermediate and advanced concert bands an opportunity to explore the tune's soaring beauty through broad and colourful phrasing, rich harmonic motion and subtly shaded counterlines.  The exquisite melody is passed around to each section, creating a true ensemble work.
Press Reviews

"Dieses weltbekannte, aus der Grafschaft Derry stammende, nordirische Volkslied [wird] ...immer wieder gerne vom Publikum gehört... Eine nette, nachahmungsvolle Geste des Arrangeurs Joseph Kreines ist die Berücksichtigung einer heutzutage oft zahlreichbesetzten Flötengruppe, indem die Flötenstimme verschiedentlich dreistimmig gesetzt ist."
