#KronosQuartet »Uniko« (2011) zusammen mit den Finnen Kimmo Pohjonen und Samuli Kosminen (Komposition, Akkordeon, Samples, Gesang, Synthy-Programming) ist der Waunsinn. Insbesondere allen Freundinnen und Freunden von Drone-Musik inniglichst zur Beherzigung anempfohlen.

Dass die vom #KronosQuartet (Jimi Hendrix für Streicher, und so 🙃 🤘) ’nen Querbeet-durch-alle-Genres Knall haben ist eh bekannt.
Aber was bei rauskömmt, wenn einer mit noch ’nem famoserem Alround-Knall wie #GustavoSantaolalla (bekannt durch Mukke zu »Deadwood« und »The Last of Us«) ein Album hispanoamerikanischen Noten von denen produziert, ist spektakulär.Als ob er den elitären US-Genies gesacht hätte: seid doch mal lustig und deftig, ihr Klemmis!

Kronos Quartet — Tiny Deck Concert

If you thought string quartets only play stuffy and irrelevant music, check out the NPR's latest Tiny Desk Concert, featuring the renown Kronos Quartet. Their version of 'Ohio' by Crosby, Still, Nash, and Young was a revelation and really shone new light on this song. You could sense the outrage of the original in their playing. Marvellous. And their playing of 'Strange Fruit' sung so brilliantly by Billie Holiday, was very affecting and very moving. I thought those two pieces were quite stunning in particular. Well worth a listen.

“We rarely invite the same band back to the Tiny Desk. But the beloved #KronosQuartet, which first played our offices 12 years ago, isn't the same band. Three of the four members are brand new: Cellist Paul Wianko succeeded Suny Yang; violinist Gabriela Diaz and violist Ayane Kozasa replaced retiring original members John Sherba and Hank Dutt. The newly rejuvenated quartet, still under the durable leadership of violinist and founder David Harrington, appears to be having more fun than ever. And it shows in these vigorous performances of pieces that are whimsical and socially conscious.”

Nina Simone's version of "For All We Know", arranged by Jacob Garchik & performed by the Kronos Quartet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvGk1XRGIuU
I'd never heard of this song before, but this arrangement was pretty enough that I went and found the original afterwards. See the video's description for a discussion of the piece.

Musical Interlude: OK, to add something bizarre and macabre to Valentine's Day....This started as a work by Edward Gorey that he meant to illustrate, but never got around. He sent a bunch of his writings to the group The Tiger Lillies, of which he was fond, and allowed them to set them to music. (The Gorey estate, I understand, is none too happy about this....) And this became a show, and later album, "The Gorey End."
The Tiger Lillies aren't for everyone, and while I like them, I don't expose them to all and sundry because they can be a bit off-putting. This is one of the more accessible albums, and my personal favorite track.
"The Weeping Chandelier," performed by the Tiger Lillies with the Kronos Quartet.

“The music of SOUNDWALK was created, compositionally, to never have a specific beginning, middle, or end. Depending on where you entered an installation, you would step into a different part of the composition. The music had to work like a sphere or something where no matter how you turned, it was complete.” - Ellen Reid
Check out our conversation with Pulitzer Prize winning composer Ellen Reid. We discuss her new album, ‘Big Magestic,’ which grew off of her fascinating SOUNDWALK project - a free, GPS-enabled work of public art that uses music to illuminate the natural environment. The record features Shabaka Hutchings, Kronos Quartet, Riley Muleherkar, and more. It is out now on New Amsterdam Records/Eclipse Projects.

For those following my #NIN deep dive, met an album I don't really want to listen to more than once (Year Zero). BUT! #KronosQuartet doing a remix of a NIN song?! I'd like a whole album of that, please.

Tonight: fabulous evening of genre-defiance with the Kronos Quartet + Ghost Train Orchestra with special guests David Byrne, Joan as Policewoman, Karen Mantler, Marissa Nadler, playing the music of Moondog in various configurations. So many special moments, what a great show at Town Hall. Worth the trip to Times Square

"I found a used copy of Michael Gordon‘s "Weather" in a bargain bin some time near the end of the 90s, and it stuck with me.
Gordon is co-founder of the #BangOnACan musical collective and attendant festival, and his work is often pretty interesting for it’s weird mix of accessible orchestral motifs, drenched in minimalism (think #SteveReich) and adventurous stretching (think #KronosQuartet) but it’s really his own thing."
