"a glorious recital by the Glasgow-based Rookh Quartet...the diversity of music for four horns reflected the range of potential expressive possibilities of this ensemble, from brooding darkness to tumultuous resonance.”
Ken Walton, Vox Carnyx
Next performance
The Rookh Quartet joins RSNO Principal Trombone Dávur Juul Magnussen and the Choir of Glasgow Cathedral for a unique performance inspired by the echoes and acoustics of the sea caves that go deep into the towering cliffs of the Faroe Islands. Music by Drew Hammond, Alisson Kruusmaa, Sofia Kiviniemi, Claire McCue, Neil Tomas Smith, and others.

What do audiences say?
The quartet was great! I enjoyed how relaxed everything was and how they took the time to explain the history and context of the pieces.
I thoroughly enjoyed it- I liked how warm, personable and accessible the atmosphere was. It was so engaging and interesting to have an explanation of each of the pieces before we heard them and really added to the understanding and enjoyment of each.
Excellent performance and repertoire.
Brilliant!
Excellent playing!
Superb playing, excellent introductions, lovely atmosphere, some wonderful pieces.
I was intrigued by the concept of the “horn quartet” and wanted to listen to their sound along with discovering new composers.
