A WORD FROM CALLUM
Welcome,
My name is Callum Rookes, and I'm a professional musician currently operating out of Milwaukee (USA), London, and Edinburgh. I've had an exciting and eclectic career performing at high pressure national, and international state events as a principal tubist of the Band of the Coldstream Guards, as well as high stakes live performances as principal tubist with The Household Division Symphony orchestra where total viewers have ranged from 4 million, to 2 billion people worldwide.
​
I then served in the Central Band of the Royal Air Force, and in 2023 had the privilege of participating in his Majesty King Charles III's coronation. Simultaneously, as a conductor I've been working internationally having recently conducted the San Francisco Philharmonic (USA), Denver Philharmonic Orchestra (USA), and University of Wisconsin Wind Ensemble; whilst in the UK being Principal Conductor of The Brass Foundry, and Musical Director of The London Video Game Orchestra.
​
