The best arrangement of all, of the Londonderry Air; made by Percy Grainger, an Australian. And it's such a relief to hear the glorious melody without the clawing sentimentality of the corny popular words (not original to the tune, by the way) getting in the way. He arranged it for wordless choir. This is a very good adaptation for brass band. Gorgeous.
I like it when you can hear more of the cornet after about a minute or so and also at the crescendo. It reminds me of my childhood listening to my father,
Lyrics By Frederic Weatherly, a ballad, often set to the tune of Londonderry Air. 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 roses falling, It's you, it's 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, It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,- Oh Danny boy, Oh Danny Boy, I love you so! But if you come, when all the flowers are dying, And I am dead, as dead I well may be, Ye'll come and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an "Avé" there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be, For you will bend and tell me that you love me, and I will sleep in peace until you come to me!

When your whole world collapses, music will be your bridge.
The tubist(s) are gods with pedal tones
RIP Pete - a great actor who will be truly missed.
This is the ultimate answer to the question"What is music?" This make me hoping and longing!
Absolutely beautiful!!!
This is by far the greatest arrangement of Danny Boy I have ever heard. :)
GRAINGER!!!!!
The tune was perfect too!, oh blimey, How stunning!
DEFINITELY! ❤
@@nickykeefover6659 Yes, Percy Grainger. The arrangement is very simple but so effective. The counter melodies in the harmony are just lovely.
This makes me cry in Brassed Off every time!!
Yep
I think anyone who isn't moved by this has no soul. It's simply beautiful.😭
That bass note at @0.41 gets me crying inside for home every time.
I think of my dear father, gone now these 22 years. I love you, Dad.
Respect , now he live in freedom in the heaven ,❤️💫
Grimethorp colliery band play this brilliantly 👍. Sounds absolutely amazing still in 2024 😉.
Message from Mr Ormondroyd.
He’s awake?!?
Yeah. He said your tenor horn’s too soft!
I'll go and stop them.
You do that and you'll be waking up in the next ward.
Perfection, I love you Mum (died 1992) #RIPmum

I agree with you, I've always preferred when this is played by brass. I think the ''heartfelt'' vocal cheese just doesn't compare.
RIP... SJE i will never forget.. and we will meet again.. hope to keep our promise. So sorry and thanks very much..

I'm not crying, you are...
I saw the band live last night at st andrews hall in norwich and their verison is beautiful live
Shit off a shovel. Blody heart feels this every time as well
From the heart. Thanks
I am an 85 year old ex musician and this song brings me to tears every time I hear it. KKB
@@keithbuck6529 you are never an ex-musician... only a musician :)
The pipes are calling
same here, my kids all know that I want this played at my funeral
Makes ya heart sick and your eyes well with tears for the loss of the 27th Lancers Drum & Bugle Corps.
I used to hate Danny Boy,until I saw the film Brassed Off. Now it's a firm favourite,such a wonderful interpretation,and beautifully played.
what's make you hate Danny boy at that time?
I hope my grandad doesn't go before I can make him proud
Lyrics By Frederic Weatherly, a ballad, often set to the tune of Londonderry Air.
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 roses falling,
It's you, it's 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,
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,-
Oh Danny boy, Oh Danny Boy, I love you so!
But if you come, when all the flowers are dying,
And I am dead, as dead I well may be,
Ye'll come and find the place where I am lying,
And kneel and say an "Avé" there for me.
And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me,
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be,
For you will bend and tell me that you love me,
and I will sleep in peace until you come to me!
And THIS is why strings and woodwinds should all be burnt down and remade into brass instruments.
+Will Smith agreed
Keep strings
Listen to the Grainger arrangement (which is this modeled after) and you'll change ur mind
why can't i find the full movie?? or at least the players actually playing?? going to keep looking.
look on ebay ... i just bought it brand new for 99p
Euphoniums are the best :)
It's a bloody euphonium!!!!! :)
❤
who arranged this? Im looking for this version for my brass band
Percy Grainger did.
Frank Wright I believe made the brass brand transcription of the Percy Grainger arrangement
😢
playing violin or trombone is not important ! The important thing is the music !
It's a bloody Euphonium!
wonderful actor was Peter,great movie,great band but why the need to change a great tune like Danny Boy,the original is perfect.
Only in Yorkshire......not so grim up north...
