Project String Quartet are excited to announce a Three Day Visit with Repton School, working with the Alkyona Quartet and International Artist Graham Oppenheimer to create a range of masterclasses, interactive performances and concerts for both the senior and primary school.

Repton’s Director of Music, Oliver Walker, is excited for the project to give the school’s string students a boost at the beginning of the academic year, saying:

Repton School

Repton School

Repton School is delighted to host Project String Quartet, and it will clearly support our commitment to developing young string players. PSQ will work with pupil across our Prep and Senior Schools, inspiring beginner players in our whole class string lessons for year 3 as well delivering world class masterclasses to our elite players. Meeting and hearing inspirational players will clearly make a lasting impression on our pupils.
