2000 - 2004
Friğrik (Frikki) Donaldsson-Walker was Music Director of Glasgow Chamber Choir from 2000 until May 2004 when, after (in his own words) "a very special four years of magical music-making", he decided to give up the Music Directorship of the choir to concentrate on other ventures.

Frikki was born in Iceland but spent his formative years as a chorister at Holy Trinity, Southport. In 1985 he gained a degree in Music Performance from RSAMD and went on to win a double prize in the Royal College of Organists’ Choirmasters examinations. Following a spell at Wells Cathedral Choir as Vicar Choral and teacher Friğrik eventually returned to Glasgow for his postgraduate teacher training.
He was appointed Director of Music at St. Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral in 1996.

Frikki's musical taste is very wide incorporating music from the Renaissance to the 21st century.

 

 

1994 - 2000
Robert Marshall was co-founder of the choir along with Gordon Smith. He was Chorus Master of Edinburgh Royal Choral Union.
