Song of the Week: Danny Boy
Famous Irish/Canadian tenor Colm Wilkinson recently performed in Sherwood Park. Most noted for his work as the original Jean Valjean in Les Miserables as well as Phantom of the Opera, Wilkinson has a broad repertoire that includes modern music and classics. One of his signature songs is the Irish ballad Danny Boy. Set to the tune of Londonderry Air, this iconic song was actually written by an Englishman, Frederic Weatherly.
