| 释义 |
He first was appointed as alto lay clerk at Ely Cathedral, then at Lichfield Cathedral, at last at Canterbury Cathedral where he was senior lay clerk from 1978 until 1994. During his career he had numerous performances as a soloist singer within the UK but also in the US and in Canada. Occasionally he can be seen on TV with solo performances and readings. He took additional lessons by Arthur Hewlett and specialised on Sinus Tone Control, a sound technique by Ernest George White, which puts special emphasis for singers on using the resonances in the head. In this method he gives lessons for speakers and singers as a professional voice teacher. He performed with the male trio Canterbury Clerkes for 25 years. In 2000 he founded the mixed voice quintet Quodlibet, with which he made three albums. Besides that he plays the organ at different churches and conducts and coaches choirs. Peter Giles is also known for his publications on the subject of countertenor. DiscographyAs part of the trio Canterbury Clerkessix albums
