This work for soprano and concert band was originally written for a special occasion: the wedding of one of the composer’s children. It therefore matches another piece written for a similar occasion “ I Shall Love But Thee ”. The lyrics are from the book Respiro Neve by the internationally renowned art photographer Luca Artioli – who possesses poetic talent as well. The first movement is stately and serene as where the contrasting allegro is much more dynamic and cheerful requiring the solid high register of the singer. The conclusion is festive and radiant partly thanks to the contribution of a piccolo trumpet! This work is a wonderful addition to the bandrepertoire wanting to perform with an excellent vocal soloist!
