The Promise of Hope Naoya Wada

Command Series

The Barnhouse Command Series includes works at grade levels 2, 2.5, and 3. This series is designed for middle school and junior high school bands, as well as high school bands of smaller instrumentation or limited experience. Command Series publications have a slightly larger instrumentation than the Rising Band Series, and are typically of larger scope, duration, and musical content.

Young Japanese composer Naoya Wada's new composition, The Promise of Hope is an uplifting work that young students will enjoy rehearsing and performing. Full of wonderful teaching materials, the infectious melodies and vibrant rhythms combine to produce a sound that sounds much more difficult than it really is. Exceptionalmusic for this grade level.
