Phil Lawrence, film composer in London

21 January

*Well, happy 2010! I can now release the star info on the casting of "The Magnificent 11" (even though it was let out of the PR bag 2 weeks ago) we have Mr. Bean (not Rowan Atkinson!) Mr. Sean Bean in front, Robert Vaughn (playing the role of a baddie), Paul Barber & Johnnie Spitfire, there are some other casting to be set in stone, but as we've just been put back 2 weeks due to the weather in Wales, there's time yet!
I'm setting to work soon with Shahin Badar ("The Prodigy" vocals) on some ideas for a single for the film, besides other musical aspectswithin the production. Meanwhile I'm off to Liverpool with the GSMD to do a series of educational concert featuring several of my works as a part of a brass project within Liverpool/Sefton/Knowsley, and one will actually be in my old primary school Anfiled Rd Jnr. School just 2 minutes from the hallowed ground, this Thursday 21st to Sat 23rd, pop in to the Liverpool Arts Centre Saturday morning between 9am & 12pm opposite the Liverpool Phil Hall if you want to say hello! Next news might be about some material I working on that might just get in front of Robbie Williams!!!

In the fast-turnaround world of newspaper and promotional commercials, library music was historically our only option. Phil Lawrence revolutionised all this, providing a service whereby we could now commission original / arranged material at high speed. Particularly relevant for our Sunday Times and The Times productions is Phil’s ability to “re-create” classical music completely from scratch and seamlessly edited to any specific commercial length. Whatever our requirements, from nine to thirty-nine second versions of any classic, Phil met any deadline no matter how short, with the track sounding as if the BBC Symphony Orchestra had recorded it, or an originally composed generic theme in any style. Phil has always attacked the task at hand with intelligence, professionalism, but most importantly, creativity and passion.
