As they prepare to release a new collaborative album, The Quietus catch up with Laurie Anderson and the Kronos Quartet’s David Harrington to discuss the new record.
“The first recording collaboration between two of contemporary music’s most renowned figures is set for release next week as Laurie Anderson and new music ensemble Kronos Quartet prepare to unveil ‘Landfall’.
The collaboration has been nearly 30 years in gestation: ‘I think it was in 1989 that I first met Laurie and asked her if she’d be interested in writing for us,’ says Kronos founder and violinist David Harrington. ‘It took many years and many conversations, then at a certain point it just felt right for her.'”
As the inaugural Rewire Artist in Focus, Laurie Anderson presents an extensive programme at Rewire 2018, including a live performance, artist talk and screenings. Learn more at Laurie Anderson.
