PAST EVENT

“The Kronos Quartet has broken the boundaries of what string quartets do.” (The New York Times) This renowned new music ensemble, an early Penn Live Arts favorite, celebrates composer and longtime collaborator Terry Riley’s upcoming 90th birthday. We’ll be performing several of the 30 works that Riley has written for the group, including Cadenza on the Night Plain, Good Medicine, and One Earth, One People, One Love—along with some of our newest commissions. With thousands of concerts performed worldwide, Kronos Quartet amply demonstrates that it is “the most far-ranging ensemble geographically, nationally and stylistically the world has known.” (The Los Angeles Times)
