COLIN BAYLISS was born in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire in 1948.
His life-
and he now has a catalogue of over a hundred and fifty works
including two operas, four symphonies, six string quartets,
three piano sonatas and many other pieces for most
instrumental and chamber groupings.
This site lists his published compositions.
Details of his other works will be found in
The Music of Colin Bayliss: an annotated catalogue,
due for publication by Da Capo Music Ltd in the near future.
He is a member of the British Academy of Composers and
Songwriters, the North West Composers' Association
and the Performing Rights Society.
As well as writing music himself, he has also compiled
catalogues of the earlier works of Anthony Hedges
and Sir Peter Maxwell Davies.
His concern for the state of music publishing led him
to found his own company in 1992 -
This company has to date published over 700 pieces,
mainly of today's composers, and also some recently
discovered pieces and arrangements of works by
composers of the past.
It has also begun to record some of these works
on compact disc under the New Century Classics label.
