Terry Riley: Sun Rings
Have you ever wondered what stars sound like?
The Guardian reports that «the Kronos Quartet’s new recording employs ’space sounds’ recorded by NASA over the years, and these percussive clicks, drones and ghostly screeches are artfully integrated into the string arrangements.» Don’t miss this unique opportunity to meditate creatively and poetically upon the infinite universe we are a part of, and to see everything you thought you knew about the string quartet being challenged in the most stimulating ways.
