For nearly 50 years, San Francisco’s Grammy-winning Kronos Quartet and its nonprofit Kronos Performing Arts Association have reimagined the string quartet experience through thousands of concerts, more than 70 recordings, collaborations with performers across myriad genres, and more than 1,000 commissioned works from composers worldwide, including as part of the monumental 50 for the Future: The Kronos Learning Repertoire — an education and legacy project that has commissioned and distributed for free the first learning library of contemporary repertoire for string quartet, made possible by a group of adventurous partners and funders including Carnegie Hall and many others.
Kronos Quartet’s participation in this project is made possible by generous funding from San Francisco Grants for the Arts, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the Bernard Osher Foundation, and many individual donors.
