Programme Note
The West Ocean String Quartet has been described by The Irish Times as “a musical odyssey to soothe and stimulate the imagination”. Largely beyond genre categorisation, the Quartet’s music can be described as sitting between the two worlds of traditional folk (from the West of Ireland) and classical music. Their sound is influenced by the seemingly endless store of inexplicably beautiful airs and robust dance music from along the Irish Atlantic edge, exploring how, in tunes about love, exile, home, longing and heartbreak, the landscape shapes humans and vice versa.
