Danny Boy

丹尼男孩》（其旋律也被称为《伦敦德里空气》）通常被认为是一首古老的传统曲调，但其结构和节拍并不符合任何已知的爱尔兰民歌形式。至于过去一百多年来最常与之联系在一起的歌词，则是由一位显然从未踏足过爱尔兰的英国律师写的！尽管如此，它仍然是最受喜爱的民歌之一，亚历山大-埃斯特朗奇（Alexander L'Estrange）的这首编曲非常平易近人，将歌词苦尽甘来的特点表现得淋漓尽致

原文简介:
Danny Boy (the melody of which is also known as Londonderry Air), is often assumed to be an old, traditional tune, however its structure and meter do not fit any of the known Irish folksong forms. As for the words most commonly associated with it for the last hundred years or so, they were written by an English lawyer who apparently never set foot in Ireland! Still, it’s one of the best-loved folksongs of all and this very approachable arrangement by Alexander L’Estrange brings out the bitter-sweet nature of the text. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offering a selection of beautifully crafted arrangements in a diversity of musical styles. From Broadway, pop and folk to spirituals, gospel and original works, the series is arranged for 3-part choir (soprano, alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines, the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion – so get exploring and get singing!
