The Water Is Wide (also known as O Waly, Waly) is an old folk song from Somerset in England, though it might have Scottish origins and, like other folk songs, exists in many variants. The lyrics partly date back to the 1600s but the song remains ever-popular today. This attractive arrangement is intended for intermediate players. The arrangement is intended for student or professional recitals, end-of-semester concerts, or as a popular encore for a violin recital. The imagery in the lyrics describes the challenges of love and is reflected in this arrangement. The folk song is the same one that the British composer Benjamin Britten arranged for voice and piano. This arrangement for violin and piano is certain to be popular with audiences.
