Because talent is priceless

Group of CAYO students and teaching artists in Havana, Cuba

Why scholarships matter

Our goal isn’t simply to identify great student musicians in need, it’s to identify those student musicians who will:

  • Be open to the full and unique experience of working and playing with Cuban students, teachers, and musicians.

  • Embrace the cultural, social, and everyday differences in Cuban life.

  • Bring those indelible experiences home to share.

There’s nothing like the sound of String Week in Cuba
