简   介

Kronos因其独一无二的艺术视野和无所畏惧的实验精神而著名，他们一直致力于拓展古典弦乐的音乐领域。没有几个乐队能够像他们那样成功地将古典与流行沟通起来。他们演出曲目非常广泛，从Shostakovich, Webern 和 Ives到Astor Piazzolla, John Cage 和 Howlin’ Wolf，其表演总是令人出乎意料。

Brief introduction

Renowned for its unique artistic vision and fearless commitment to experimentation, Kronos consistently pushes the boundaries of the classical string quartet repertoire. Few groups so successfully bridged the gap between classical and popular music as them. 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.
