“The Kronos puts its exceptional abilities to the service of a distinctly personal view of what the modern classical concert is about.”
—The Calgary Herald

Since its inception in 1973, this Grammy Award-winning ensemble has embraced experimentation. With an extensive repertory ranging from Shostakovich, Webern and Ives to Astor Piazzolla, John Cage and Howlin’ Wolf, its thrilling performances are full of surprise and revelation. A leading voice for new work, the Kronos Quartet commissions pieces from today’s most innovative composers from around the world and has assembled a body of work unparalleled in its range. Stay after the performance for a Meet-the-Artists discussion hosted by Jeremy Haladyna, UCSB Department of Music.
