The Kronos Quartet celebrates its 40th anniversary in the 2013-2014 season, with forward-looking artistic explorations that include 12 new commissions. They’ll perform two different programs in Ann Arbor, with the first including former U-M professor George Crumb’s epic work Black Angels, a response to the agony of the Vietnam War featuring bowed water glasses, spoken word passages, and electronic effects. The second program revolves around war and politics, including a suite from the film Dirty Wars, which premiered at Sundance in 2013.
