Exquisite A Cappella Voice-Leading
This 'Danny Boy' arrangement by Peter Knight for SATB divisi a cappella is a masterclass in vocal ensemble writing. The texture is purely choral, demanding precise intonation and blend without accompaniment. The voice-leading is thoughtfully crafted, offering excellent opportunities for singers to develop harmonic awareness and independent melodic lines across all parts. A truly refined folk arrangement.

Reliable King's Singers Arrangement
A solid a cappella arrangement of 'Danny Boy,' true to The King's Singers style. The SATB divisi makes it fairly intricate, so it requires a capable ensemble, but the payoff is a rich, expressive sound. At 8 pages, page turns are manageable. It's a classic folk piece, always a hit at community events or concerts. Ready to perform with minimal fuss.

A Superb Choral Teaching Tool
This Peter Knight arrangement of 'Danny Boy' is fantastic for advanced high school or community choirs. The SATB divisi a cappella texture challenges students to master intonation and independent part singing. The engraving quality by Hal Leonard is, as expected, clear and professional, aiding sight-reading. An excellent choice for contest or festival performances, fostering deep musicality.

Beautiful arrangement! The only thing I would say is that I thought it was just satb, but on receiving it, it's actually ssaattbb! Some have more splits than others. Just means a lot more work involved.

It's not the original score, used by the King's Singers on their record, but still very close to that and usefull for a mixed choir. Some parts are doubled. Very good for a close harmony choir too.
