Educational projects and workshops, often linked to public performances, have taken the Edinburgh Quartet to three continents. Whether working with schoolchildren who have little or no experience of live music-making, or with young professional performers and composers, the Quartet is equally at home and keen to help. Workshops are regularly held for the students of the Ian Tomlin School of Music, Napier University, and at the University of Edinburgh. The Quartet is presently collaborating with composer Kenneth Dempster in his children's opera project "Faraway Pictures", based upon the story of the islanders of St. Kilda.
