While a chorister, he sang many solos in services, broadcasts and oratorios; he toured Western Canada with the choir in 1983, and sang with them at the BBC Proms. He won several prizes as a chorister for his outstanding solo singing and also for his musical contribution at the Pilgrims School, The Winchester Cathedral Choir School. Paul achieved great success as treble soloist in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Requiem appearing with Sarah Brightman, Plácido Domingo and The Winchester Cathedral Choir at the world premiere in New York City and The British premier in Westminster Abbey.
