Since it was formed in 1999 – with Séamus Maguire and Niamh Crowley on violins, Ken Rice on viola and Neil Martin on cello – the West Ocean String Quartet has achieved international recognition, earning glowing reviews and plaudits from critics and audiences in Ireland, America, Japan, Australia and Europe.

Within the quartet, the worlds of traditional and classical music meet and fuse effortlessly, the quartet’s unique voice fearlessly willing to navigate the space in-between.

The John Hewitt Society is delighted that the Summer School has been included as one of the first dates on this tour to celebrate the release of their most recent album, Atlantic Edge.
