Sarah Quartel
R145 Discovery Miles 1 450 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

for SATB unaccompanied The Parting Glass is a traditional Scottish song, often sung as a farewell at the end of a get-together.

The arrangement was made for the composer's friend Matt Jones, who served with the Canadian Military in Afghanistan in 2010-11; his deployment and eventual safe return inspired the setting of the piece. With its valedictory message, The Parting Glass would make a fitting end to a performance, perhaps as an encore item.
