Immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of traditional folk music: With "Irish Tune from County Derry" (British Folk-Music Settings No. 5), Schott Music presents one of the world's most moving melodies in a masterful choral arrangement. Best known as the poignant tune of "Danny Boy", this piece unfolds its full emotional depth as an expressive wordless vocalise for six-part mixed choir (SATBarBarB).

The rich voicing, featuring divided lower voices, lends the ensemble a warm, orchestral texture brimming with depth and romantic nostalgia. Performed entirely without lyrics, the setting brings luminous vocal colours, touching harmonies, and nuanced dynamics to the fore.

Perfect for ambitious choirs, concert programs, and expressive musical highlights. Available as a convenient digital choir score download, you can start rehearsing right away.
