i'd like to try and get into some kronos - i like the requiem for a dream soundtrack - but their back catalogue is large and overwhelming!
any veterans have recommendations on where to begin... whats their best and/or most accessible work?

i like the dracula soundtrack by philip glass performed by them
but furthermore i think they lack depth and are a bit vanessa may-like plastic, at least that's what i think since seeing them on film performing different trains by reich and since not really liking the requim for a dream soundtrack, so im not really a veteran

And that their style can be very mechanical. Which is not always a bad thing. Nor a good thing. What ?

Erm, they're only banned at school. I don't really think this is an attack against individual liberties, because public school is supposed to be laic.
So, as long as any religious sign is banned, it's not that bad a thing. Maybe it could even prevent communautarization et caetera. Bah..

wow, this topic took a turn for the insane! shocker!
kronos quartet have commissioned mogwai to write material for performances (and possibly a recording?) next year
i guess i agree w/ jivver, even though they're amazing musicians they do kind of just do what they're told. i don't know much about famous string groups asides from this one, brodsky, and the icelandic string octet. maybe the others think for themselves more, play around with arrangements instead of trying to do them perfectly.
