(Don Felipe (Phil Green)) Robert Faron Society, May 18, 2012 (Philip Green was born in 1911, and he started to learn the piano at the age of seven. He won a scholarship to London's Trinity College of Music when aged 13, where he studied many areas of music including theory, harmony, orchestration and composition. His long recording career began with EMI in 1933, and during the following years he directed and played piano and harpsichord on 78s with many leading bands. The vast majority of his numerous pre-war records had his own name on the label, directing diverse groups like The Seven Kings of Rhythm, Busketeers, Swing on Strings, Rhythm on Reeds and Don Miguel and his Cuban Music (one of his many pseudonyms, some others being Louise Duke, Jose Belmonte, Ricardo Lamarr and Don Felipe). Such was his prestige in the British film industry that Philip Green was eventually appointed resident musical director of the Rank Organisation. Towards the end of his career he moved to Ireland, where he developed his interest in music with a religious theme; he died late in 1982 in Dublin) <http://www.rfsoc.org.uk/pgreen.shtml> |
