Eiko & Koma and Kronos Quartet: Fragile
I once described Kronos Quartet as the one music that I could be on a desert island with, and not go insane. They are versatile, and miraculous. Since they are the artist in residence at Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center, I’m expecting to get a lot of them in the near future.
The day after attending, I still remember the nuances of the performance. Now that consider, the nuances were the highlights. I sat on the floor, on a pillow, ten feet in front of Eiko & Koma, and behind them sat Kronos Quartet. It was amazing to be so close, so intimate. Eiko & Koma’s eyes slowly opening, and looking directly at me, reminding me of the fragile, and how lifeless we can become.

Actually, Chris, my son, was not playing. He went home because he was sick & forgot his shirt.
