String Quartet
Educational Outreach
Unlock a world of musical diversity and cultural richness for your students with our “What Is A String Quartet” performance!
While many students may know about typical band instruments, they may not have had the opportunity to experience the beauty and versatility of string instruments that form the backbone of symphony orchestras. Our talented musicians will showcase a diverse range of musical genres, including Classical, Tango, Jazz, Broadway, and Pop, and provide students with an interactive performance that will deepen their understanding of music and expand their artistic vocabularies.
With our emphasis on musical periods, articulation, and other key concepts, this performance is sure to be a memorable and enriching experience for all.
Our programme has been accepted for the National Arts Council’s – Arts Education Programme (NAC-AEP), and is eligible for the Tote Board Arts Grant subsidy.

Everything went well and both students and teachers enjoyed the video and songs played by Vetta’s String Quartet. The quality of the recording is good too! 😊👍
~ Ms Jo-Anne, Chua Chu Kang Secondary School
Thanks for the provision of the program for our assembly program. I have heard positive feedback from the teachers who were with the students during the assembly. They found it refreshing and a good exposure for the children as well.
~ Mr Bernard, Rosyth School
The video was well-paced and the explanations were clear for the students. Both teachers and students enjoyed all the song choices which we can relate to. The questions in the worksheets are also very useful and can be simplified to suit the lower primary.
