Description:
I Shall Love But Thee' is an occasional work in the literal sense of the word, since it was originally written on the occasion of the composer's youngest son's wedding. The texts, by William Shakespeare, inspired Jan Van der Roost to compose profound and appealing music, largely in the style of Henry Purcell (in the first part) and Georg Friedrich Handel (in the second part)-although no literal quotations have been used. The rather rare combination of soprano and brass band makes this piece a unique addition to the repertoire!
