CPDL Work

I have reorganised the John Dowland page to amalgamate score pages and place links in a logical fashion.

I have adopted Hugo Wolf page under the adopt-a-composer scheme.

I have wiki coded and added some content to John Henry Fowler's score submission guide which is now in the main Help system.

To do

• User:Christopher_R._Baker - copyright notices
• Add Clementine Vulgate text to remaining Psalm pages and add to Category:Text pages

My editions

My work for the CPDL is entirely transcription; I am not a professional editor of music, but rather, I make occasional comments on my editions to the end that performances may be enhanced without detracting from the composer's published intentions. I aim for my transcriptions to be of the highest possible quality in terms of being technically correct (right pitch and rhythm of notes, etc.) and to be as clear as possible for singers and accompanist (if there is one). If you think that either of these aims are not met, please contact me on the above address and I will endeavour to correct any mistakes.

I am currently working to bring the following works to CPDL (in priority order):

1. Give unto the Lord, Psalm XXIX (Edward Elgar) (in progress)
2. Serenade (Edward Elgar)
3. Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis in A (Charles Villiers Stanford)

Background

I'm a student in the UK. My main preoccupations are eating, sleeping, drinking, singing, and occasionally doing editions for this amazing site. I've edited a few scores for choirs in the past and responded to some requests on CPDL.

I have sung with many choirs in the past, currently I sing with Leicester Cathedral Choir and Leicestershire Chorale as a choral scholar in each choir; in the Royal School of Church Music Millennium Youth Choir, and in Coro Nostro, an independent chamber choir based in Leicester, singing music for music's sake.
