Where is the Love? With all the bad stuff in the world right now, the 4 Phils have really been feeling that we need a lot more LOVE right now and no one says it better than the #blackeyedpeas youtu.be/9riywABtWUE

Phil # 3 wore the wrong hat and sang the wrong lyrics but he got it right in the end. The 4 Phils wish all our followers a blessed Christmas. Sing along to the First Noel and Joy to the World. #Christmas youtu.be/wIACbHCJmrQ

Happy Sunday - Just going through some of the old 4 Phils videos on Youtube - this one has over 5000 views and 317 likes. It's a lesson I made for my stage 5 music class during lockdown. Seems to have struck a "Chord" with a lot of viewers (pun intended) youtu.be/VUbyFGcZRm8

The 4 Phils came back from holidays to record this old children's folk song. This is the Youtube link - teachers, feel free to use this as a resource. You can play the video in class with the lyrics so that students can sing along. youtu.be/5HeiP96A5W8

Happy Saturday. A taste of winter today - my arrangement of the 1st movement of Winter from the 4 Seasons for school string ensemble I play all the parts. I shot this video around Wentworth Falls about 8 years ago after a heavy fall of snow. vimeo.com/133728595

During lockdown in 2020, on Anzac Day many of us stood in our driveways in our neighbourhoods. I plugged my electric violin into my acoustic amplifier & played the last post. The video was taken by my neighbour across the road. #AnzacDay2023 youtu.be/XS7zjM2oUks

Happy Saturday - I made this video for my father before he passed away 3 years ago when he was in hospital and couldn't go out bushwalking. I shot the video walking down the Darwin Walk - Wentworth Falls Music is from a TV show I composed for. youtu.be/KWxbcIVWWQE
