Rohan Harron
Rohan Harron is a Dublin-based violinist and composer from Huddersfield, UK. He is a second year BMus student at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, studying violin under Sarah Sew and composition under Kevin O’Connell. Having performed in prestigious venues including the Royal Albert Hall and Bridgewater Hall, Rohan has also performed in numerous masterclasses as a soloist with Katherine Hunka, Jack Liebeck and other renowned players, and with members of the Navarra and Signum quartets as a chamber musician. As a composer, Rohan has previously written for the Ligeti Quartet and this year his music was performed in New Music Dublin as part of National Concert Hall’s Creative Lab scheme, where he studied with Emma O'Halloran. Rohan is passionate about contemporary music, and in particular performing works by under-represented composers, and he is so excited to be working with Hard Rain this coming year!
