“Strings Across the Sea”: 10 days, 8 concerts, 300+ students in SVG

Over 10 days in March 2026, the Viatores Quartet took part in a historical cultural residency across St. Vincent and the Grenadines. During the residency, the quartet delivered 8 performances and engaged with over 300 students through school visits in St. Vincent, Canouan, and Bequia. The programme brought world class chamber music directly into local schools, communities, and performance spaces, creating moments of cultural exchange, music education and shared artistic experience for children and families in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. This residency was made possible through the leadership and support of the Banff Centre, funding through the DC Anderson Family Foundation, and logistics support by the Grenadines Initiative. Watch the video below for a glimpse into these 10 days of music, learning, and connection.
