Description

Kronos Quartet (David Harrington on violin, John Sherba on violin, Hank Dutt on viola, and Joan Jeanrenaud on cello) play Philip Glass’s string quartets. CD in plastic jewel case with 14 pg sleeve booklet. Cover by Francesco Clemente.

Recorded August 1993 at Skywalker Sound, Marin County, California.
Mastered at Soundbyte, New York, New York.

From the liner notes:

“Philip Glass’ string quartets may contain his most intimate music. They are works through which a very public composer, perhaps the most important opera reformer of our age and a longstanding collaborator in large-scale music theatre, holds up a mirror to himself and his way of composing.”
