Martin Phipps
Martin Phipps is one of Britain's leading soundtrack composers, active in both films and television. He has scored several seasons of the popular BBC series The Crown.
Phipps was born on August 1, 1968, in London. His parents, Jack Phipps and Sue Pears, operated a music agency whose clients included composer Benjamin Britten; he was a friend of the family and became Phipps' godfather. Sue Pears, moreover, was a niece of singer Peter Pears, who was also among the family's clients. Martin studied drama at Manchester University but then switched to music and landed a staff composing position with the BBC in 1994. The first of his scores to gain widespread notice was that for the 1999 miniseries Eureka Street, depicting the aftermath of the 1994 peace accords in Northern Ireland.
Phipps wrote scores for the BBC dramas North & South (2004) and The Virgin Queen (2005); the latter earned him an Ivor Novello Award for Best Original Score. He earned a second Ivor Novello Award, this one for Best Television Soundtrack, in 2008 for the BBC's adaptation of Charles Dickens's novel Oliver Twist. He scored television adaptations of a pair of Jane Austen novels, Persuasion for the ITV network and Sense and Sensibility for the BBC. His score for the television mystery series Wallander (2008-2015) brought him a BAFTA Craft Award for Best Original TV Score in 2009. He won the same award in 2010 for his score for the television film Small Island.
Phipps has continued to write music for television, scoring the BBC's miniseries adaptation of Tolstoy's War & Peace in 2016, but he increasingly often turned his attention to feature films. These included Endgame (2009), starring William Hurt and dealing with the end of the apartheid system in South Africa, Brighton Rock (2010), the documentary Britain in a Day (2011), and the biographical drama Woman in Gold (2015). Much of Phipps' energy in the late 2010s and early 2020s was taken up by scores for the six-season series The Crown, about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II; Phipps wrote the soundtracks for the third, fourth, and fifth seasons.
