This song was first composed in 2001 as an instrumental piece. That's why the music speaks so emotionally, in and of itself - even without words. The lyrics were added about a year later by an Irish lyricist, but it wasn't until American up-and-coming singer Josh Groban recorded the song in in 2003 that it gained worldwide fame. In fact, Groban performed "You Raise Me Up" at Super Bowl XXXVIII and also at many national events of note. The Cello opens this Duo arrangement with the melody in the Irish-Tenor range. The Violin then plays it in the soprano register before re-stating it an octave higher - like unto an Irish flute. The final reprise of melody brings it all back one last time as a toned-down, melancholic, soft-spoken whisper.
