      Will Green I returned to this recording today, as I enjoyed it so much when you posted it. I hope your schedule allows you to return to your Tonebase friends at some point soon. I miss your effervescence!

    "O Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
    From glen to glen and down the mountainside
    The summer's gone and all the roses falling
    'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide

    But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
    Or all the valley's hushed and white with snow
    'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
    O Danny boy, O Danny boy, I love you so

    When winter's come and all the flowers are dying
    And I am dead, as dead I well may be
    You'll come and find the place where I am lying
    And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me

    But I shall hear though soft you tread above me
    And all my grave shall warmer, sweeter be
    And you will bend and tell me that you love me
    And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me

    O Danny boy, the stream flows cool and slowly
    And pipes still call and echo 'cross the glen
    Your broken mother sighs and feels so lowly
    For you have not returned to smile again

    So if you've died and crossed the stream before us
    We pray that angels met you on the shore
    And you'll look down, and gently you'll implore us
    To live so we may see your smiling face once more
    Once more"

      Will Green I don't think I've ever seen all the verses. This is a beautiful song. Thanks for sharing.

      Will Green I really needed to hear this today. Thank you - and for the second time this week, I've found myself with both a smile and a few tears due to your playing.

    At my home, in the office, I called my mother to ask her for a WORD to inspire the choice of piece which I share with you now.

    • Will Green Beautiful playing! I noticed at the beginning of the video that you looked exactly like Rachmaninov, when you didn鈥檛 have your glasses on. I thought this was interesting and decided to share it. Once again, Beautiful playing, this was a piece I haven鈥檛 heard much before. Thank you for playing it!
