The world-famous Kronos Quartet met with students in five Colorado College classes on Aug. 30, 2022, in Packard Performance Hall.

 

The Kronos Quartet spoke about the group’s new film, “A Thousand Thoughts,” to students in four critical inquiry seminars: Black and Brown Muslims in White America; Musicals in American Culture; Philosophy as a Way of Life; and Emotion and Meaning in Music, as well as to students in Music Composition.

 

“It’s important to note that four of the five classes were first-year seminars,” says Ryan Bañagale ’00, co-chair of the Music Department, who has been working for several years to bring the ensemble to campus. “Students spent their second day of CC with the world-famous Kronos Quartet.”
