For 40 years, the Kronos Quartet--David Harrington, John Sherba
(violins), Hank Dutt (viola), and Sunny Yang (cello)--has pursued
a singular artistic vision, combining a spirit of fearless
exploration with a commitment to continually re-imagining the
string quartet experience. In the process, Kronos has become one
of the most celebrated and influential groups of our time,
performing thousands of concerts worldwide, releasing more than
50 recordings of extraordinary breadth and creativity,
collaborating with many of the world's most intriguing and
accomplished composers and performers, and commissioning more
than 800 works and arrangements for string quartet. In 2011,
Kronos became the only recipients of both the Polar Music Prize
and the Avery Fisher Prize, two of the most prestigious awards
given to musicians. The group's numerous awards also include a
Grammy for Best Chamber Music Performance (2004) and "Musicians
of the Year" (2003) from Musical America.Kronos' adventurous
approach dates back to the ensemble's origins. In 1973, David
Harrington was inspired to form Kronos after hearing George
Crumb's Black Angels, a highly unorthodox, Vietnam War-inspired
work featuring bowed water glasses, spoken word passages, and
electronic effects. Kronos then began building a compellingly
diverse repertoire for string quartet, performing and recording
works by 20th-century masters (Bartok, Webern, Schnittke),
contemporary composers (John Adams, Osvaldo Golijov, Aleksandra
Vrebalov), jazz legends (Ornette Coleman, Charles Mingus,
Thelonious Monk), rock artists (guitar legend Jimi Hendrix,
Brazilian electronica artist Amon Tobin, and Icelandic indie-rock
group Sigur Ros), and artists who truly defy genre (performance
artist Laurie Anderson, composer/sound sculptor/inventor Trimpin,
interdisciplinary composer/performer Meredith Monk).Integral to
Kronos' work is a series of long-running, in-depth collaborations
with many of the world's foremost composers. One of the quartet's
most frequent composer-collaborators is "Father of Minimalism"
Terry Riley, whose work with Kronos includes the Salome Dances
for Peace (1985-86); Sun Rings (2002), a multimedia, NASA-
commissioned ode to the earth and its people, featuring celestial
sounds and images from space; and The Serquent Risadome,
premiered during Kronos' "40th Anniversary Celebration" at
Carnegie Hall in 2014. Kronos commissioned and recorded the three
string quartets of Polish composer Henryk Mikolaj Gorecki, with
whom the group worked for more than 25 years. The quartet has
also collaborated extensively with composers such as Philip
Glass, recording a CD of his string quartets in 1995 and
premiering String Quartet No. 6 in 2013, among other projects;
Azerbaijan's Franghiz Ali-Zadeh, whose works are featured on the
full-length 2005 release Mugam Sayagi: Music of Franghiz Ali-
Zadeh; Steve Reich, from Kronos' performance of the Grammy-
winning composition Different Trains (1989) to the September
11-themed WTC 9/11 (2011); and many more.In addition to
composers, Kronos counts numerous artists from around the world
among its collaborators, including the Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu
Man; Azeri master vocalist Alim Qasimov, legendary Bollywood
"playback singer" Asha Bhosle, featured on Kronos' Grammy-
nominated CD, You've Stolen My Heart: Songs from R.D. Burman's
Bollywood; Inuit throat singer Tanya Tagaq; Mexican rockers Cafe
Tacuba; sound artist and instrument builder Walter Kitundu; and
the Romanian gypsy band Taraf de Haidouks. Kronos has performed
live with the likes of Paul McCartney, Allen Ginsberg, Zakir
Hussain, Modern Jazz Quartet, Noam Chomsky, Rokia Traore, Tom
Waits, David Barsamian, Howard Zinn, Betty Carter, and David
Bowie, and has appeared on recordings by such diverse talents as
Nine Inch Nails, Dan Zanes, DJ Spooky, Dave Matthews, Nelly
Furtado, Joan Armatrading and Don Walser. In dance, the famed
choreographers Merce Cunningham, Paul Taylor, Twyla Tharp, Eiko &
Koma, and Paul Lightfoot and Sol Leon (Nederlands Dans Theater)
have created pieces with Kronos' music.Kronos' work has also
featured prominently in a number of films, including two recent
Academy Award-nominated documentaries: the AIDS-themed How to
Survive a Plague (2012) and Dirty Wars (2012), a documentary
expose of covert warfare for which Kronos' David Harrington
served as Music Supervisor. Kronos also performed scores by
Philip Glass for the films Mishima and Dracula (a restored
edition of the 1931 Tod Browning-Bela Lugosi classic) and by
Clint Mansell for the Darren Aronofsky films Noah (2014), The
Fountain (2006), and Requiem for a Dream (2000). Additional films
featuring Kronos' music include 21 Grams (2003), Heat (1995), and
True Stories (1986).The Quartet spends five months of each year
on tour, appearing in concert halls, clubs, and festivals around
the world including Lincoln Center Out of Doors, BAM Next Wave
Festival, Carnegie Hall, the Barbican in London, WOMAD, UCLA's
Royce Hall, Amsterdam's Concertgebouw, Shanghai Concert Hall, and
the Sydney Opera House. Kronos is equally prolific and wide-
ranging on recordings. The ensemble's expansive discography on
Nonesuch Records includes collections like Pieces of Africa
(1992), a showcase of African-born composers, which
simultaneously topped Billboard's Classical and World Music
lists; 1998's ten-disc anthology, Kronos Quartet: 25 Years; Nuevo
(2002), a Grammy- and Latin Grammy-nominated celebration of
Mexican culture; and the 2004 Grammy-winner, Alban Berg's Lyric
Suite. Other recent releases include Rainbow (Smithsonian
Folkways, 2010), in collaboration with musicians from Afghanistan
and Azerbaijan; and Aheym: Kronos Quartet Plays Music by Bryce
Dessner (Anti-, 2013). Music publishers Boosey & Hawkes and
Kronos have released two editions of Kronos Collection sheet
music: Volume 1 (2006), featuring three Kronos-commissioned
works; and Volume 2 (2014), featuring six Kronos-commissioned
arrangements by composer Osvaldo Golijov.In addition to its role
as a performing and recording ensemble, the quartet is committed
to mentoring emerging performers and composers and has led
workshops, master classes, and other education programs via the
San Francisco Conservatory of Music, the California State Summer
School for the Arts, Carnegie Hall's Weill Institute, The
Barbican in London, and other institutions in the U.S. and
overseas. Kronos has recently undertaken extended educational
residencies UC Berkeley's Cal Performances, the Clarice Smith
Performing Arts Center at the University of Maryland, the Special
Music School at the Kaufman Music Center in New York City, and
the Malta Arts Festival.With a staff of ten based in San
Francisco, the non-profit Kronos Performing Arts Association
(KPAA) manages all aspects of Kronos' work, including the
commissioning of new works, concert tours, concert presentations
in the San Francisco Bay Area, education programs, and more. One
of KPAA's most exciting initiatives is the Kronos: Under 30
Project, a unique commissioning and residency program for
composers under age 30 that has now added five new works to the
Kronos repertoire. By cultivating creative relationships with
emerging and established artists from around the world, Kronos
and KPAA reap the benefit of decades of wisdom while maintaining
a fresh approach to music-making.
