Virginia
Croft's experience as a
string player and
educator is evident in
the care with which she
has scored this beautiful
folk tune idiomatically
for young string players.
Relatively easy to play,
Skye Boat Song is a great
opportunity to develop
lyrical playing habits
with a developing string
group. Here is a very
playable setting of a
beautiful Scottish folk
song. It commemorates one
of the most exciting
moments in Scottish
history in the middle of
the eighteenth century
during the Jacobite
Rebellion. At this time,
a small group of men
escaped by night in a
tiny boat across the
rough sea to the Isle of
Skye to save the life of
the young lad whom they
believed to be the
rightful heir to the
throne of Scotland.As you
play this music, can't
you feel the boat rocking
and the oarsmen straining
at their posts against
the sea? The long
diminuendo from m. 51 to
the end passes the final
melodic fragment down
through the voices until
the small boat has
vanished into the
distance, leaving only
the water.The words of
the original folk song
are:Speed, bonnie boat,
like a bird on the
wind;Hark, how the
seagulls cray!Carry the
lad that was born to be
kindOver the sea to
Skye!.
