Resol String Quartet

The Resol String Quartet formed in the Autumn of 2018 at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, brought together by their shared vision to make classical music more inclusive and accessible both in the present and for the future, reaching new audiences and exploring lesser played repertoire whilst honouring the rich traditions of string quartet music. These young artists act as ambassadors for chamber music as one of the premiere string quartets based in Scotland. In May 2021, the RSQ was awarded both the First Prize and Audience Prize in the CAVATINA Competition at the Wigmore Hall, representing the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. In the same year, they made their Perth Concert Hall debut, were named as one of Chamber Music Scotland’s ‘Ones to Watch’ and became Live Music Now Scotland Artists. They also appeared live on BBC Radio Scotland’s ‘Classics Unwrapped’. In 2022 they made their Conway Hall debut as part of its historic ‘Sunday Concert Series’. In the same year they performed on BBC Scotland’s ‘Scotland’s People Award 2022’ alongside Tom Walker. In early 2023 the RSQ was privileged to step in to cover for the Fitzwilliam String Quartet for a performance in the York Late Music Concert Series, and enjoyed a residency in Aldeburgh as Britten Pears Young Artists, where they were privileged to perform Arthur Bliss’ Oboe Quintet alongside Nicholas Daniel OBE. Outside of the concert hall and classroom, the quartet have performed for a variety of other events, from weddings to corporate functions. They are proud to have performed for Cop26 and the opening of the Scottish Capital HQ, and have worked with Glasgow Caledonian University, the Double Tree Hilton, UKSG and Interpol.
