The Coull Quartet

Formed in 1974, the Coull Quartet, Roger Coull and Philip Gallaway, violins, Gustav Clarkson, viola, and Nicholas Roberts, cello, has performed and coached worldwide. Since 1977 the Coulls have been Quartet-in-Residence at Warwick University where, in addition to their concert commitments, the Coull’s members assist with the training of the University’s orchestras and teach some of its more talented string players. Aware of its cultural inheritance through their study with many distinguished musicians, the Quartet is only too keen to share its knowledge and joy of the chamber music medium. They run courses for pre-formed groups at Leicester University and Benslow Music Trust.
The Quartet performs regularly in the USA and Western Europe and has toured in Asia, the Middle East and South America. In an exciting new venture the quartet is planning to make a series of recordings with the recording company SOMM. Current critically acclaimed recordings include the complete Schubert Quartets, the complete Mendelssohn Quartets (the recommended choice of Radio 3’s Record Review) and a recording of quartets by Walton, Elgar and Bridge which was voted “Record of the Year” by the BBC Music Magazine.
