Achieving renown for his solo songs, Armstrong Gibbs also wrote music for the stage, sacred works, three symphonies and a substantial amount of chamber music. Although a representative sampling has been performed and recorded, much of his music remains unpublished. Gibbs gained wide recognition during the early part of his life, but until recently, like many of his contemporaries, his music has been little known. Although he retired from adjudicating, he continued conducting and composing right to the end of his life.
The Armstrong Gibbs Society seeks to remedy this British composer's neglect by promoting performances and recordings of his music, and through this website enlighten the unfamiliar with his many brilliant works.
