Anthony Phillips & Harry Williamson

Anthony Phillips (founding member of Genesis and co-author of the group's early work) and Harry Williamson (son of author Henry Williamson) collaborated on orchestral material in the mid-1970s, most notably the four-movement suite Tarka, written in 1975 and released in 1988.

Anthony Phillips is an English guitarist and a founding member of Genesis who left during the production of Nursery Cryme (circa 1970). Harry Williamson is an English composer and the son of author Henry Williamson. Their collaboration produced Tarka (written 1975, released 1988) and other pieces such as Gypsy Suite (1976, mentioned in reviews).

The DeBaser review presents Tarka as a forgotten masterpiece: an orchestral, four-movement suite written by Anthony Phillips and Harry Williamson in 1975 and released in 1988. The work features the National Philharmonic Orchestra and guests such as Guy Evans and Didier Malherbe. The reviewer strongly recommends the album for record-collection inclusion.
