  Kronos Quartet

Date: Friday, October 2, 20097:30 PM
Location: Macky Auditorium

For more than 35 years, the Kronos Quartet has combined a spirit of fearless exploration with a commitment to expanding the range and context of the string quartet. This special program will include George Crumb’s legendary Black Angels. The piece—a highly unique, Vietnam War-inspired work featuring bowed water glasses, spoken word passages, and electronic effects—was the inspiration for David Harrington to form Kronos in 1973.
