Kronos Quartet with Matmos and Walter Kitundu
Fri, Apr 21 - Sat, Apr 22
8 pm
$35/$25 regular; $29/$21 students, seniors & teachers;$26/$18 YBCA
Kronos Quartet joins forces with local experimental music superstars
in this celebration of sound art. Matmos makes music from everyday
sounds - amplified crayfish nerve tissue, a kiss between lovers.
Their world premier collaboration with Kronos is a score for video,
software interface, sample banks and stringed instruments. Kitundu
makes instruments that rely on wood, water, fire and earthquakes for
their power and pitch. His piece for the Quartet honors jazz great
Charles Mingus in a way he could never have imagined, on instruments
only Kitundu can play.
