Arranged by LaBounty. Concert Band. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications. Extra full score. Composed 2014. Duration 7 minutes, 28 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-4184-01. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-4184-01). How Deep The Father’s Love For Us is a timeless hymn from British songwriter and Christian worship leader Stuart Townend, written just before the end of the 20th century. This poignant setting for band by Anthony LaBounty was written to honor Mr. William Leslie, the father of beloved colleague Thomas Leslie, and purposely borrows vignettes of imagery recognized in Aaron Copland’s Appalachian Spring, among other orchestration elements. The tune is melodious and alluring; equal to the text bountiful in poetic language illuminating the scriptural epitome of the ultimate love of a father.
