About Hugh

Singer (tenor)
Ware

Hugh Legg is an accomplished tenor on the opera, concert and private event circuit. He has a wide repertoire which includes opera arias, songs from the shows and many other songs both sacred and secular. Hugh began his musical life as a choirboy in St George's Cathedral, Cape Town which led to early opportunities on the professional opera stage. When he first moved to the UK, he took the title role in Britten's Albert Herring in productions both in London and Oxford. Leading tenor roles in Don Giovanni, Rigoletto and Turandot followed as well as frequent engagements singing at wedding and other celebrations. Most recently, Hugh has performed the role of Turiddu in Cavalleria Rusticana and the title roles in Mozart's Idomeneo and La Clemenza di Tito. Hugh is an exceptional sight reader and learns new repertoire with ease.
