Kronos Quartet Tickets

Highly enjoyable concert, showcasing Kronos' virtuosity, versatility and good taste. I've been listening to them for a good long time, and they always satisfy.

It was kind of bizarre, to be honest. Lots of talking and bizarre experimental “music”…. I’m familiar with Kronos and it was NOT what I expected. My daughter and I left before intermission. Wish they would have played more of their own stuff.

On every level- musically, historically, emotionally and existentially - this experience is impeccable. Chessman's libretto, paired with the grounded and yet transcendent sound of the Kronos Quartet, carries your heart to the heights and depths of this story.Berger's composition has both roots and wings. Van-Anh Vo graces the composition with the delicate presence of a butterfly and resounding thunder claps insisting we pay attention! Eckert ...what does one say? 75 minutes of rising and falling and rising again. The resonant ascendancy of beautiful notes, alternately plunging into discordant hell, was astounding. The talents of Cameron, DeChiazza, Scott, Fraser and Mohr added visual cues that led us in and out of three landings. Exhausted, inspired and struck dumb, I re-entered the world remembering. And to Kristy Edmunds and her team.....Royce Hall rocks in the best ways possible.

Another great evening spent with Kronos; as a many decades follower of theirs this particular group of songs 50 for the Future was really extraordinary. The Tanya Tagaq piece was especially moving as I had just seen her perform the week before.

Listening to the beautiful performance by the Kronos Quartet and guests, Wu Man and Nels Cline, was breathtaking! The experience was overwhelming having the pleasure of watching such an incredibly talented group of musicians perform and create such astounding music.

A wonderful and wonderfully eclectic selection of music played by wonderful and wonderfully eclectic musicians.

Tanya Tagaq was remarkable. I'd heard her several years ago when she was merely wonderful. She has matured vocally and developed better stage presence. And the voice .... I did not think it was possible for a human being to do what she does with her voice. A growl with a fundamental frequency down around that of a water buffalo resonates throughout the hall while two separate breathing and vocal notes are layered on top of it. She's expanded "classic" Inuit 'throat singing' (which is really just controlled vocalized breathing) and blended it with the fabulous musical interpretations of Kronos using mostly Nordic modern music forms as the backdrop. Plus she has fabulous stage presence, a rock-star quality, beauty and sensuousness that leaks into every pore of your body.
