About this piece
Danny Boy sets words by Frederic Weatherly to the old Irish melody known as the Londonderry Air. This version is credited to Declan Galbraith, who recorded it as a young singer. The long, arching tune is one of the most loved Irish melodies. The preview on this page plays the opening 30 seconds of the 1:25 arrangement (74 notes, about 2 a second). The arrangement is set at around 96 bpm, in 4/4. You will need about 4 octaves, from E2 up to E6. Most of the preview is played in chords and intervals: 68 % of its key presses have two or more notes.
The range is wide, so sit at the middle of the keyboard and let your arms travel.
