Please note, due to unforeseen personal circumstances, Jlin will not be joining Kronos Quartet for this performance. …………………………………………………………………………………. Having just celebrated their 50th anniversary, Kronos Quartet make their triumphant return to the Chan Centre since their sold-out concert in 2013. The innovative group have “broken the boundaries of what string quartets do” (The New York Times) over their five decades of performing. With over 1,100 commissioned works and 70 albums to their name, the prolific quartet have been recognized with more than 40 awards, including three Grammys. Kronos have been at the cutting edge of what this centuries-old artform can do, collaborating with illustrious artists like tabla master Zakir Hussain, genre-defying musician Rhiannon Giddens, rock band Nine Inch Nails, and composers such as Tanya Tagaq and Philip Glass. ………………………………………………………………………………….
