Philip Stopford (b.1977) began his musical career as a chorister at Westminster Abbey. He later studied music at Keble College, Oxford University where he was Organ Scholar and held the same post at Truro and Canterbury Cathedrals. He was appointed Assistant Organist at Chester Cathedral in 2000 and Director of Music at Belfast Cathedral in 2003. In 2016, Philip was appointed Director of Music at Christ Church, Bronxville NY following three months as Composer in Residence, and returned full time to the UK in 2021.

Philip’s sacred music is published by Hal Leonard and MorningStar Music and self-published at philipstopford.com. His music was first recorded by Ecclesium, a choir established and directed by Philip, and more recently by Truro Cathedral Choir (with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales) and the Choir of St Luke’s Chelsea.
