Philip Wilby is an English composer.
Born in Pontefract, Yorkshire, England, Wilby was educated at the King's School and later at Leeds Grammar School, studying violin, organ and theory. He played violin with the National Youth Orchestra, where he came under the influence of Herbert Howells. This helped form his early decision to take composition seriously. Wilby then studied at Keble College, Oxford. He joined the Covent Garden Orchestra and later the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. In 1972 he became senior lecturer at Leeds University. There he taught various composition, liturgy, directing, and score reading classes as well as co-founding the Leeds University Liturgical Choir.
His many compositions include works for keyboard, orchestra, educational music, chamber, and sacred choral music, but it is his music for concert band for which he is perhaps best known.
During communion, we have the pleasure of hearing one of our graduating seniors sing a song from the Disney musical, The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
