Coull Quartet with Raphael Wallfisch, Cello - Queens Theatre

2010-2011 Classical Concert Series

Roger Coull, violin
Philip Gallaway, violin
Rose Redgrave, viola
Nicholas Roberts, cello

This ‘magnificent, seasoned ensemble’ (The Strad) is one of the most-respected and well-established string quartets in Britain today. Founded at the Royal Academy of Music in 1974, the Coull Quartet has appeared at most of the UK’s major music societies and festivals and performs and broadcasts extensively around the world. As quartet in residence at the University of Warwick, the Coull also has a long list of recordings and commissions to its name.

The Coull Quartet’s rare combination of maturity and freshness are joined by the celebrated mastery of internationally regarded cellist Raphael Wallfisch for this exceptional concert to round off the series. Also highly regarded as a teacher, Wallfisch has recorded nearly every major cello work and many leading composers, such as Sir Peter Maxwell Davies and John Tavener, have written works for him.
