Edward Higginbottom, DPhil (Oxon), BMus (Cantab), is a music scholar, organist, choirmaster and conductor.
Most of his career has been as organist at New College Oxford, where he led their choir for more than 35 years and produced a large number of choral recordings.
An early episode of ITV’s Inspector Morse featured a character based on Edward Higginbottom (although the suspect’s obsession with Spangles and Trebor Mints was not based on real life).
