Philip Legge, February 2005

November 2008 update

Those of you who know me reasonably well will know that I haven't been very active here through most of 2008, and I'm only dropping in here briefly to report that this is likely to continue for at least the next month, and possibly until the New Year, while I turn attention to one of my other loves: writing. A close friend (and also represented here as a composer, incidentally) competed in NaNoWriMo in 2005, at a time when I happened to be much too busy (and the next two years only got busier). This year, it's my turn and I have deliberately set aside other of my musical projects to make way for it, having always put off writing the novels (that I didn't end up progressing beyond 20,000 words say) when an interesting musical project turned up.

(At the moment I'm actually rehearsing for a performance of Rachmaninov's Vespers on November 30, but as it's a work I first sang as a 19-year-old, almost from memory by the time of the (musically orgasmic) concert, I don't have much revision to do on it! 95% of it came back after the larger part of two decades, so I was almost up to performance standard in the first rehearsal. :-)

Even then, after the silly season finishes (4 concerts in December, some of which I'd prefer not to do), I think my chances of returning to CPDL as even a part-time admin are fairly slim: I would rather prefer to getting back to finishing some items in my extensive back catalogue of unfinished scores, and republishing most of my existing typesets in new PDFs linked directly on the Wiki, rather than to the wso.williams.edu archive. There's even a vague hope I might do PDFs of all those Berlioz scores marked with this little icon: Network.png

I will of course attempt to answer the usual crop of e-mails that I receive as promptly as I can (address below).

Best regards, Philip Legge@ Φ 22:19, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Bachelor of Science (Physics, Mathematics), University of Tasmania

Background

Philip Legge is an amateur musician based in Melbourne. Although always interested in music from an early age, he took up singing as an adult with the Tasmania University Musical Society thanks to the lure of performing in Beethoven's Choral Symphony. He sings mainly as a tenor or counter-tenor, and has performed a wide variety of repertoire with a number of choirs around Australia. He has from time to time conducted choirs, composed some choral music, and on several occasions unwillingly played as a repetiteur, despite not being a pianist!

Philip's interests range across seven centuries of Western art music, from the notational complexities of Guillaume Dufay, to modern composers such as György Ligeti, and as a musicologist he is particularly interested in notations pre-dating the modern era. He is especially knowledgeable in the music of Hector Berlioz and the English symphonist Havergal Brian, and has edited the latter's Symphony No. 7 in C (1948) for publication by United Music Publishing Ltd. Philip intends to eventually have public domain editions of Berlioz's Te Deum and Requiem available for download as full scores, vocal scores, and instrumental parts.

Other ongoing projects include performing editions of Mozart's Great Mass in C supplemented by suitable movements from two other Mozart masses; and Monteverdi's Mass and Vespers of 1610.

Scores

PDF versions: (v = vocal score; f = full score; p = parts available; [ ] = work in progress)

The PML Music Editions page has a fuller list of music, including orchestral music and some works with copyright restrictions (making them unsuitable for inclusion in the CPDL).

Publications

The TUMS Busking Book, a compendium of 26 madrigals, motets, songs, rounds, and canons, as sung by the Tasmania University Musical Society.
