William developed into a noted music educator and composer of music. He was honored five times by the National federation of Music Clubs with an honorary Award of Merit for Service to American Music. Often called the 'Schubert of children's music,' Gillock composed numerous piano solos for beginning and intermediate students and their teachers to perform together. He also hosted numerous workshops for piano teachers, covering everything from interpretational ideas to performance practices for his pedagogical compositions.
During the mid 1950's, while living in New Orleans, Louisiana, William Gillock wrote a 10 measure piece for his nephew, Jon. Jon, happy with playing it and Gillock impressed with composing it, decided to make it part of a whole new collection of original piano pieces. Numbering twenty-four, these character pieces are intermediate level repertoire intended for young pianists developing their technique and interpretive proficiency. Originally published in 1958, Lyric preludes in Romantic Style is among the most performed and well known works in Gillock's compositional repertoire.
