Inmy recording I have used an electric guitar. The arrangement is also verysuitable for classical and acoustic (steel strung) guitar groups. I am mindfulto create an arrangement which teachers can use for groups in music schools.The techniques employed mirror those required in the usual pathway of musicaland technical development. I am certain that using popular and well-loved musicwill achieve exactly the same musical and technical results as ?classical?repertoire with the added bonus that audiences, parents and pupils alike willfind the music exciting, original and motivating.

I hopevery much you enjoy playing Wonderful Tonight. Please do investigate my dozensof other arrangements and compositions of music of all styles, suitable for allfrom beginners to concert players.

"Give me a boat that can carry two and both shall row, my love and I." From a rich, vibrant Celtic tradition comes the memorable tune "The Water is Wide," lovingly crafted to evoke misty Scottish landscapes with rolling green hills (you can almost smell the heather). This unabashedly romantic acoustic guitar quartet is perfect for weddings, ceilidhs (or any Celtic-themed event), recitals and concerts. For wedding music, this arrangement is recommended as a prelude, unity candle accompaniment, a bridal march or a bridesmaid processional.
As sacred music, "The Water is Wide" is effective as a prelude, postlude, an offertory, silent prayer accompaniment or special music for traditional church services and other worship events. This melody has been used in multiple hymn settings, including "The Gift of Love," "Though I May Speak with Bravest Fire," and as an alternate melody for "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross." 15 pages of music (that includes the score and separate two-page pullout parts for each guitar). Key: G major.
