Thirteen North is a new string ensemble of 13 of Scotland's top players, driven to bringing classical music to new and more diverse audiences.

Join us in January!

Join us for two amazing winter celebrations of music in January 2025.


Thirteen North open IMBOLC Festival in Derry with the premiere of Ryan Molloy’s new piece Pianoboxing on Sunday 26th January. This is a new concerto for strings, button box, and piano and we’ll have Ryan himself joining us on piano, alongside the amazing Seán Óg Graham on the box.

We’ll be taking the whole show over to Glasgow to perform at Celtic Connections on Tuesday 28th January where we will be joined by the award winning composer Craig Armstrong who adds to our programme with his Variations on Nocturnes for Two Pianos.


Both shows will also feature pieces from our Connected performance by composers Pàdruig Morrison, Pippa Murphy and our very own Catriona Price.
