Prayer (Gebet)

Prayer composed in 2015 and Dedicated to Concert Hall member David Lamb.
This Prayer is offered in thought for the United States of America.

This is a popular work and there are several other performances of it in CH.

This quality sample by Augustine has five reeds that could have been used for the solo in this piece.
The Swell Oboe is heard first and then for variety the Swell Bass Clarinet played an octave higher.

There are 70 or 80 of Roman's compositions here in Concert Hall - just search.

Roman kindley sent me three books of his music some years ago so thankyou Roman.

Roman Bissinger was born in 1967 in the city of Bamberg, Germany. He grew up in a very musical environment and took his first piano lessons when he was 10 years old.

Because church music was always of great interest to him, he began to play the organ at 18 years of age and has, since then, performed avocationally at services in various churches.

Today he lives and works amongst other things as a spare time musician (Catholic Church music C-exams) and composer in Munich.
