Composing (1/14)
Philip has composed since the age of fifteen, when he wrote his 'Op 1', a three-movement piano sonata, reworked, years later, as the Concertino for Harpsichord & Strings. His Piano Concerto appeared the following year, and had its first play-through by the Plymouth Orchestral Society (now Plymouth Symphony Orchestra). Its first public performance was in 1967 with the Combined Orchestras of the Royal Marines in Plymouth Guildhall, and Philip as soloist.
Philip is a member of the Performing Rights Society, and publishes the majority of his work on the Internet, where he has his own home pages at Sibelius Music and G7 Music.

Philip has recently set up his own SibeliusMusic Store, trading as PRB Music, which now sells most of his current compositions, as well as giving news items and more besides!
