For 50 years, San Francisco’s Kronos Quartet—David Harrington (violin), John Sherba (violin), Hank Dutt (viola), and Paul Wiancko (cello)—has blended sounds across lines of culture and era, moving beyond the typical terrain for a string quartet. Through brave sonic explorations into the pressing issues of our time, Kronos has established a worldwide influence. Kronos has collaborated with many of the world’s most celebrated composers, breathing new life into the musical landscape.

Kronos Quartet: Five Decades

Stanford University

The Ukrainian singer dives into archaic and polyphonic singing traditions: quick interval jumps, ritual calling songs (голосіння/holosinnya), complex rhythms of koliada songs. She combines these with electronic sounds and field recordings. Her voice tells of ritual practices that were passed on orally for centuries and now sound new and more urgent than ever.
