The Promise of Living
Arrangement preview
Aaron Copland's The Promise of Living, from The Tender Land, arranged for marching band by Brighton Barrineau and Trevor Schachner, 1:05 at grade 1 to 2, written as the opener of Clinton High School's 2018 show for a small band. Copland's hymn-like melody sits in a comfortable range for young players and the arrangement gives it to the whole band in turn, so a band of twenty-five sounds full. It is a quiet, warm opener, the kind that sets a tone rather than a tempo, and it was written to lead into Finlandia and Hopeless Wanderer in the same show. The Promise of Living is public domain in its original form, which keeps licensing simple. Audio of the full arrangement is on this page. Available on its own or in a build-your-own show; where a licence is needed it goes through Tresona and is paid by the school.

Every arrangement here is available on its own. Combine it with arrangements from other shows, or add it to a show where we write a few new pieces for your band. Pricing depends on what you need, so we'll work it out together.
