Piran Legg is a Bass - Baritone originally from Kent. After studying History at the University of Kent he moved on to the Opera School at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. He has since performed extensively in Opera and concert around the UK and abroad, working as a soloist with companies such as Wexford Festival Opera, Bergen National Opera, Garsington Opera, Scottish Opera and the LSO.
​
On the concert platform Piran enjoys a busy and varied schedule. He has recently performed as Bass soloist with the Edinburgh Singers in Puccini’s Messe di Gloria and in Canterbury Cathedral as the Priest and Angel of Agony in Elgar’s epic work The Dream of Gerontius. He also has taken part in the creation of cutting edge new operas, a highlight being the role of King Erysicthon in Rushton’s work Cicadas with the LSO.

2019-2020 saw Piran appear as Banquo in Verdi’s Macbeth in Dundee, as Sante in Scottish Opera’s production of Ferrari’s Il Segreto di Susanna, as Cascada in The Merry Widow with Opera Bohemia in the Edinburgh Festival and as Colline in Paisley Opera’s groundbreaking community production of La Boheme.

Future projects include singing the role of Captain Corcoran in Gilbert and Sullivan’s Utopia Limited with Scottish Opera and singing the role of Giorgio in The Gondoliers, also with Scottish Opera. In 2021 Piran will be back at Scottish Opera, understudying the roles of Belcore in Donizetti's Elisir d'Amore, and Pistola in Verdi's Falstaff. Piran has won Music Prizes at the Canterbury Festival, is a former International Opera Awards Young Artist Bursary Winner and Fishmongers Music Scholar.
