- The USC Thornton Concert Choir performs Arthur Frackenpohl's arrangement of the traditional tune "Londonderry Air." Published by Shawnee Press #MF0354.
From the concert "Americans in Paris: The Legacy of Nadia Boulanger," May 2, 2013.
I must admit that, as a musician and a former music ed major, this is some of the best a capella singing I’ve ever heard. Thank you.
A beautiful performance. Barbara and I have the greatest admiration for Dr. Grases' talents. We really enjoyed singing in a community chorus under his direction. But we got the impression that he wasn't sure if we were capable of singing with the kind of tone quality he wanted. But it was fun while it lasted.
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing
Wonderful arrangement, wonderful performance!
Oh Danny boy the pipes the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the flowers dying
'Tis you 'tis you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy oh Danny boy I love you so
But when ye come and all the roses falling
And I am dead as dead I well may be
Go out and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ave there for me
And I will hear tho' soft you tread above me
And then my grave will warm and sweeter be
For you shall bend and tell me that you love me
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me
