Newfoundland Folk Song Arranged by John E. Govedas
I'se the B'y ("I See the Boy") is a decades-old folk song that originated in Newfoundland but has been sung and danced to the world over. The people of Newfoundland are fun-loving people who create wonderful songs about their everyday life. One of their most famous songs tells the story of a fisherman who goes out to catch fish and take them home to his wife, Liza. They have a unique way of talking in Newfoundland and sometimes use words and phrases that you would never hear anywhere else in the world. This delightful arrangement beautifully captures that unique and fun communication and story.
