Philip Cave

Conductor and singer Philip Cave is the founder and director of the vocal ensemble Magnificat and also directs the educational organization Chorworks. He is the associate conductor for chapel music at Duke University and has a substantial recording catalog on the Linn Records label. Cave began his musical career as a boy chorister at age seven. He attended Oxford University, studying under the choral conductors Simon Preston and David Wulstan. Graduating in 1973, he was also active as a singer. He was a choral scholar (a performer who appears at university functions in part payment for tuition) and a lay clerk (an adult member of a collegiate choir) at Oxford's Christ Church Cathedral. At Oxford, Cave's musical career was already well underway. He sang with the Schola Cantorum of Oxford and with Wulstan's Clerkes of Oxenford and directed several choirs. He went on to direct the 120-voice Oxford Harmonic Society, a municipal choir. As a singer, Cave was a founding member of the Tallis Scholars and also performed and often recorded as a member of leading choral groups such as The Hilliard Ensemble, The Sixteen, The King's Consort, and The Cardinall's Musick, among others. As a tenor soloist, he appeared at the Beethovenhalle in Bonn, the Sydney Opera House, and the BBC Proms in London. He appeared on stage with tenor Peter Pears, Sting, and Paul McCartney. In 1991, Cave founded the early music-oriented choir Magnificat, which he continues to direct as of the mid-2020s. He made his recording debut in 1995, directing that group in a recording of works by Robert Ramsey on the ASV label. The following year, Cave and Magnificat released an album of works by Tomás Luis de Victoria on the Linn Records label, where they have continued to record. Focusing on the rehabilitation of neglected music from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, Cave and Magnificat have toured England, Spain, Greece, and the U.S. Cave moved to the U.S. and conducted several major church choirs, including All Souls Episcopal in Washington, D.C., Immanuel Church-on-the-Hill in Alexandria, Virginia, and St. James's Episcopal Church in West Hartford, Connecticut. He moved to Duke University in North Carolina, where he continues to direct university choirs. Cave has continued to record regularly with Magnificat for Linn, releasing the album Orlandus Lassus: The Alchemist, Vol. 1, in 2024; that album was the first of a projected series of six devoted to the Magnificat settings of Lassus.
