From 1572 To 1578 He Began His Career As A Boy Chorister At St Paul's Cathedral In London Under The Aegis Of The Catholic Master Of Choristers Sebastian Westcote Who Had Also Trained The Young William Byrd Some Twenty Years Earlier. Philips Must Have Had A Close Relationship With His Master As He Lodged In His House Up To The Time Of Westcote's Death And Was A Beneficiary Of His Will. Later In 1582 Philips Left England For Good Like So Many Others Because Of His Catholicism And Stayed Briefly In Flanders Before Travelling To Rome Where He Entered The Service Of Alessandro Cardinal Farnese With Whom He Stayed For Three Years And Was Also Engaged As Organist At The English Jesuit College.

Philips Settled In Antwerp Where He Married Gaining A Precarious Living By Teaching The Virginals To Children.

On His Way Back Philips Was Denounced By A Compatriot For Complicity In A Plot On Queen Elizabeth's Life And He Was Temporarily Imprisoned At The Hague Where He Probably Composed The Pavan And Galliard "Doloroso" Fitzwilliam Virginal Book Nos LXXX And LXXXI . Philips Himself Translated The Accusations Made Against Him During His Trial Revealing That He Could By Then Speak Dutch Or Flemish. He Was Acquitted And Released Without Further Charges. Philips' Fortunes Took A Turn For The Better On His Return And In 1597 He Was Employed In Brussels As Organist To The Chapel Of Albert VII Archduke Of Austria Who Had Been Appointed Governor Of The Low Countries In 1595. Here After His Wife – And Child's – Death He Became Ordained A Priest In Either 1601 Or 1609 – Opinions Differ In Any Case He Received A Canonry At Soignies In 1610 And Another At Béthune In 1622 Or 1623. In His Position At Court Philips Was Able To Meet The Best Musicians Of The Time Including Girolamo Frescobaldi Who Visited The Low Countries In 1607-1608 And His Fellow-Countryman John Bull Who Had Fled England On A Charge Of Adultery. His Nearest Colleague However Was Peeter Cornet C.1575-1633 Organist To Archduchess Isabella Wife Of Philips' Employer The Archduke. Philips Died In 1628 Probably In Brussels Where He Was Buried. Philips Was An Extremely Prolific Composer His Surviving Motets Number In The Hundreds And He Also Composed Both Instrumental And Consort Music. Although He Was English Only Some Of His Keyboard Pieces Are In The Tradition Of The Virginalist School And His Vocal Works Are More In The Style Of The Italian Composers Of The Time Such As Orlande De Lassus The Earliest Surviving Piece We Know To Be By Philips Is A Pavan Dated 1580 In The Fitzwilliam Virginal Book No LXXXV . It Bears The Note The First One Phi Lips Made And Was The Subject Of A Magnificent Set Of Variations By Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck Entitled Pavana Philippi And Others By Thomas Morley And John Dowland. Of Philip's Twenty-Seven Known Excluding Doubtful Works Keyboard Pieces – Pavans Galliards Fantasias And Settings Of Italian Masters – No Fewer Than Nineteen Are Included In The Same Collection. The Probable Compiler Of The Fitzwilliam Virginal Book Francis Tregian The Younger A Fellow Catholic Was Almost Certainly Acquainted With Philips Both Men Were At The Court Of Brussels In 1603 And Tregian May Well Have Been Responsible For Importing Philips' Works To England. The Pavan "Doloroso" No LXXX Appears To Be Dedicated To Tregian Bearing The Title "Pauana Doloroso. Treg Ian " And There Is Also A "Pavana Pagget" With Its Galliard Dated 1590 And No Doubt Written On The Death Of His Patron Lord Thomas Paget. Many Of The Pieces Are Settings Of Italian Composers And In Some Philips' Name Is Spelled The Flemish Way Peeter Suggesting That The Scribe – Possibly Tregian Himself – Was Copying From Continental Manuscripts.
