“His reputation as an amiable raconteur on musical matters has made him a universally-popular performer wherever he goes. Recently his showcase London concert at St Martin’s in the Fields, Trafalgar Square, to a packed audience received excellent reviews. He broadcasts with the BBC and is a Decca Recording Artist. Phillip began his music studies at an early age and a performance at the Royal Albert Hall when he was just 12 helped to launch a busy and most successful performing career. Having studied at the Royal College of Music he went on to be appointed Professor of Piano there when just 27 years of age.”
