Peter Howell (musician)
Peter Howell (born c. 1948) is a musician and composer. He is best known for his work on ''Doctor Who'' as a member of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
Howell's musical career began in the late 1960s working with John Ferdinando in various psych folk bands including Agincourt and Ithaca. His psych folk work also included a musical version of Lewis Carroll's ''Through the Looking-Glass'' and a comedy musical entitled ''Tomorrow Come Someday''. Howell and Ferdinando recorded five albums before Howell became a member of the Radiophonic Workshop. In 1970 he became a studio manager at the BBC and in 1974 he joined the Radiophonic Workshop with which he would remain associated until 1997.
==''Doctor Who''==
His work on ''Doctor Who'' began in 1975 when he provided some accompanying incidental music for ''Revenge of the Cybermen'' and special sound for ''Planet of Evil''. When John Nathan-Turner became producer of ''Doctor Who'' in 1980, he decided that the music needed to be updated and commissioned Howell to provide a new arrangement of the ''Doctor Who'' theme to accompany a new title sequence. Whereas the original arrangement of the theme (written by Ron Grainer) had been realised by Delia Derbyshire (and, originally, assisted by Dick Mills) using musique concrète techniques, Howell arranged Grainer's theme on analogue synthesisers - primarily using a Yamaha CS-80, an ARP Odyssey Mk3 and a Roland Jupiter-4.
Howell's new arrangement first appeared in 1980 on ''The Leisure Hive'', for which Howell had also recorded the incidental score, and was used throughout Tom Baker's final season on the programme as well as Peter Davison's tenure as the Doctor. For Colin Baker's first season in 1984, however, there was a problem in transferring the music so the theme was slightly lower in pitch. This version continued to be used until Colin Baker's 1985 story, ''Revelation of the Daleks''. Between 1980 and 1985 Howell also provided incidental music for ten stories of ''Doctor Who'', as well as the incidental score for K9 and Company (for which he also provided an arrangement of the theme tune). In 1986, Nathan-Turner commissioned a new theme arrangement by Dominic Glynn, ending Howell's association with Doctor Who on television. He had not finished with Doctor Who yet, however. He provided the music for the radio series ''The Paradise of Death'' and ''The Ghosts of N-Space'' in the late 1990s, and his arrangement of the Doctor Who theme has continued to be used in the Big Finish audio dramas. In 2013 he joined fellow BBC Radiophonic Workshop member Dick Mills, Workshop archivist Mark Ayres and the BBC National Orchestra of Wales at the Doctor Who Prom, where he assisted with the performance of several pieces of music from the original Doctor Who series.
