The First String Quartet, Opus 12
The First String QuartetThe entire work is about half an hour. I began composing it on the first Sunday of April, 2025. The first movement has the direction: staccato e pesante solenne ma non troppo. The opening tempo I selected is: Grave. First accelerando and rallentando are at mm 21 and 23. After quick pizzicatos, the middle section, a motif takes us into a deliciously delightful cantabile. The second movement is a Fuga. There are reasons why I decided on the German understanding of the term for this form. The dux and comes opens with violin II, and an extremely rich conversational counterpoint follows - as allowed by the subject. One may care for an episode of the television discussion programme 'After Dark' at this point. 1980s. The third movement, as I was writing it, reminded me of the J. R. R. Tolkien epic. Here, in my piece, we only hear three minutes! The fourth movement began life with pen and paper before moving onto Sibelius. As one can see in the diagram, there is a formula. I have also used it as wallpaper for my mobile phone. Furthermore... the next time someone calls me, my default ringtone may just be: The First String Quartet, 4th Movement, MICHAEL BOBB!
Jephtha
(Music Sales America). An oratorio for SATTB soli, SATB chorus and orchestra, edited, and the piano accompaniment arranged by, Vincent Novello.
Rush
(E.B. Marks). "Kenneth Fuchs's fifth Naxos recording with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by JoAnn Falletta won the 2018 GRAMMY Award in the category Best Classical Compendium. Among the works featured on the album is Rush (Concerto for Alto Saxophone), which was commissioned by Ryan Janus, principal saxophonist of the United States Air Force Academy Band, and a consortium of saxophonists and ensemble conductors. The work is composed in a two-movement form, each about seven minutes in duration, connected by an extended cadenza for the saxophone soloist. The first movement, which begins with a short cadenza that introduces the thematic material of the work, is a rhapsodic Adagietto with transparent textures. The second movement, which begins with an extended cadenza that introduces blue notes into the harmonic language, is cast in the form of a jazz-inflected passacaglia with ten variations and a coda. Versions for orchestra and band are available from the publisher, as well as a piano reduction."
Reflections on the Great War
Original piano music composed by Dean Bavister, 'Reflections on the Great War' is a complete set of 24 poetic piano pieces in all the major & minor keys, joined together to form a chronological narrative of some of the key moments and themes of World War One, 1914-18.As a programmatic composition, the beginning of each piece has its own title to help describe what the music is relating to. Whilst depicting one of the darkest periods in history, there are also moments of hope, spirit, resilience, love, as well as moments of deep reflection throughout. This is particularly evident in the last two preludes, when "the guns fall silent", and we start to reflect on the war "In Remembrance".This edition also includes 4 of the preludes arranged for string quartet, composed in 2014 as Opus 26, and two songs, "Firing Line" & "Remember", composed in 2012. This book contains 73 pages of sheet music for piano and string quartet, which may be considered to be of intermediate/advanced level. The 24 preludes would take around one hour of performance time. Dean Bavister's completed and published compositions can be heard on his YouTube channel.
Moses Facing Jordan
Musical score, piano reduction, chorus and soloists with supertitles in English and DutchAt the end of his long life, Moses has finally reached the Promised Land. Across the Jordan River he can see it. God tells him that he may not cross the river, that it is time to be collected to his people, that this is the end of the journey for him. He reflects back on his life, the exodus, the plagues of Egypt, the call from the burning bush, the successes, the laws, the troubles; he remembers how it was said that Pharoah's daughter pulled him from the waters and that his name was given thus.Moses Facing Jordan is an oratorio telling the story at that moment: Moses looks at the river, views his life in retrospect, listens to God, and prepares for his personal end.

Concerto for Piano and Orchestra (Oceans Aparts)
Ragomania: A Classic Overture for Orchestra
Piano Concerto No.2, Op.22
Composed in only 17 days after the visiting Anton Rubinstein expressed a wish to have the Saint-Sa禱ns appear as a piano soloist, the Piano Concerto No.2 had a rough start at its premiere at Paris' Salle Pleyel on May 13, 1868. The premiere took place a mere three weeks after Rubinstein proposed the composer appear as soloist, and Saint-Sa禱ns later admitted he played poorly at the concert with so little time left to memorize the solo part. The critics were not sympathetic either. Despite the rough start, the work soon caught the public's attention and it remains a staple of the piano concerto repertoire to this day.Offered here is a recent edition prepared by the renowned editorial team of Clinton Nieweg and Nancy Bradburd in 2001, near the end of their long tenure in the Philadelphia Orchestra library. Originally published by the now-defunct American publisher E.F. Kalmus, the edition is based on all available source material and re-engraved. Serenissima Music is the only authorized publisher of the Nieweg Critical Performance Editions and is proud to offer this superb score in a convenient study-size format for the first time.
