The Gabrieli Choir
Philip Saxon
Philip is an experienced amateur singer and soloist, who has sung countertenor with several collegiate, church and chamber choirs as well as a cappella ensembles in the UK. It is slightly unusual for him now to be singing bass, but he enjoys sharing his love for English repertoire with new friends.
Philip also studied piano and bassoon while at school, but has concentrated on vocal performance since graduating from university. However, since he joined in July 2008 the Gabrieli Choir has performed his carol “Balulalow” both at Christmas and on its 2009 UK tour, so he may possibly be more active as a composer in future.
