Philip Green

British composer

Philip Green (born Henry Green; 19 July 1911 – 6 October 1982), sometimes credited as Harry Philip Green or Phil Green, was a British film and television composer and conductor, and also a pianist and accordion player. He made his name in the 1930s playing in and conducting dance bands, performed with leading classical musicians, scored up to 150 films, wrote radio and television theme tunes and library music, and finally turned to church music at the end of his life in Ireland. A song from this latter period, "Suffer Little Children", proved so popular that it reached No. 3 on the Irish chart in 1973.
