Selected for representation by Young Concert Artists Trust (YCAT) in 2009, Philip is rapidly emerging as one of the most prominent young cellists from the UK. Recently he has won 1st Prize in the 2008 International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition in Leipzig, the first ever British prize winner since the competition began and 1st Prize in the 7th 2009 International Lutoslawski Cello Competition in Warsaw. Last summer he gave recitals in Lake Maggiore, Italy, the Bachwoche in Ansbach, the Leipzig BachFest, Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Lake District Summer Music Festival.
Born in Edinburgh in 1985, Philip studied at the Royal Northern College of Music with Emma Ferrand and Ralph Kirshbaum. He graduated in 2007 with First class Honours and was immediately selected for the new International Artist Diploma scheme at the RNCM.
Engagements this season include an appearance as soloist with the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra and concerts in Italy and Germany. He gives recitals at Bridgewater Hall, Purcell Room, Spitalfields Festival and Wigmore Hall and tours throughout Scotland as a Tunnell Trust award winner.
