I don't know if this is just a segment of a larger part of his work but it might need to be added under symphonic music section in his works. I have no idea what other symphonic works he has written.
I was one of Bower's last music students. I'd like to think that students like Mark Tong and myself inspired him to go back to composing, but I suspect the truth is more like we drove him to it. I was writing minimalist ambient pieces while Mark specialised in Charles Ives style pianistic forearm smashes and idolised Harrison Birtwhistle. Slough (Upton) Grammar was a soul-destroying place to teach and learn music; subsequently I got the benefit of one-on-one musical tuition. Bower had a reputation for purple-faced biblical inventive with which he used to regale the fifth formers, such was his frustration. Another of his catch-phrases was "they'd never have done this to me at Ealing!".
We performed a now-obligatory high-school rock concert during which we did a punk homage to Bower. Knowing his views on popular music we fully expected him to be outraged; in fact, I caught sight of him standing at the back of the hall with his arms crossed and an uncharacteristic wry grin, so I guess he got the irony.
"Neville Bower, Neville Bower / He's a one-man super-power!"
Reading this, I'm aware of how much I absorbed from my time with Bower. I still write in my own interpretation of a tonal-chromatic system and have a deep appreciation for the students of Rimsky-Korsakov. We all experimented with serialism in the '80s and found it limited. I also remember him working on "Evocation" a couple of years before publication; it inspired me to attempt a short serial solo clarinet piece at the time.
Thank you so much for this biography; lineage is important.
I noticed that a search for the piece on my site gives the correct result, but only further down the list. I maybe should look into the setup of my search.
I think, "Op. 95, La Course de Printemps" by Charles Koechlin is missing from the database. I went over all of his works and it's not there. Please correct me if I am wrong. I have no idea how to add works on this site yet. Thank you.

Gustaf Bengtsson's String Quartet in G-major is missing as well as Cello Concerto in A minor. I would like to add them via youtube links but am still unclear as to what is copyrighted and what not.
The listings are automatic search results at Sheet Music Plus. They possibly do not sell these quartets, or they sell them under a different name. Please ask Sheet Music Plus if these quartets are really not available.
You list all 14 string quartets of the composer Charles Dancla. On each of the 14 links, a listing from sheet musicplus does not produce any one of them. Why is this happening?
According to Wikipedia and other sources, both spellings (Carl and Karl) are valid, though Carl seems to be the more common one. I have added Carl as preferred spelling.
Hello everyone! I am new to this platform, so please excuse my direct approach. I am looking for a specific work of Smetana, an offertoire called "Scapulis suis". Does anyone know where can I find the score, ideally a piano reduction? Thanks in advance!

I was just posting a comment here to know if it's ok for me to edit this piece under Symphonic Music. thank you
I think Symphony No 5 is missing. i just found it on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWElA9xzBuU&ab_channel=hscherchen

I was one of Bower's last music students. I'd like to think that students like Mark Tong and myself inspired him to go back to composing, but I suspect the truth is more like we drove him to it.

Thank you. much appreciated!
I have given you permission to edit composer information on my site. Thank you for helping me out! Let me know if you have questions.
This composition is part of Koechlin's "Jungle Book" (Le Livre de la Jungle). I admit that it is a bit hard to find, but it is actually listed near bottom of the page of that composition:

I have corrected this. Thank you for letting me know, and for the information.
