About Phillip

Born in Belmont, Port of Spain in the beautiful island of Trinidad and Tobago, Earl Mentor Phillip is a trained opera singer and has performed in musical plays and theaters and with symphony orchestras. Phillip's voice training has been in the classic mode and his extensive repertoire includes German, French, Italian as well as English material which include Gospel and Negro spirituals. As a concert vocalist and baritone, Phillip has performed throughout most of the United States and Caribbean.

Phillip's performances around the world have earned him rave reviews in such well known productions as: The Marriage of Figaro, The Barber of Seville, Porgy and Bess and the Magic Flute.

He has performed with the New Philharmonic of New Jersey, Montclair Chamber Orchestra and the Morristown Chamber Players. Phillip studied at Montclair State University as well as with teachers and coaches from the New York City Opera such as Edward Pierson, James Wilson and Jerry Brown, the Metropolitan Opera, the New York Philharmonic and the American Symphony.

Phillip has conducted several Master Classes and Workshops at several universities across the United States and for children as well. He is a lively clinician, his quick sense of humor and self-deprecating manner are most-winning. He is a fine teacher with vivid insight.

Phillip is a great story teller and his presentations are thought provoking and he is a delightful performer.

"My involvement in the arts has been a constant learning process. . . I thoroughly research each piece that I perform, so that I can help the audience to relate, by telling them about the time and ideas the piece conveys."
