Reuben Phillips is a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow at the Faculty of Music in Oxford. He was a doctoral student at Princeton University and was awarded the Karl Geiringer
Scholarship of the American Brahms Society for his PhD dissertation that explored Brahms's engagement with German Romantic literature. He has been the recipient of research grants from the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst, the Staatliches Institut für Musikforschung in Berlin, Edinburgh University's Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities, and of an Edison Fellowship from the British Library. In addition to his work on Brahms, he has written articles on the British music scholar Donald Francis Tovey and the exhumation and reburial of composers in late nineteenth-century Vienna.
Drawing on the expertise of a wide range of musicologists, performer-scholars, and music theorists, Rethinking Brahms provides new perspectives on Brahms's music, the contexts of his creativity, and the reception of his works.
