Kronos’ Fifty for the Future is commissioning a collection of 50 new works – 10 per year for five years – that are devoted to the most contemporary approaches to the string quartet and designed expressly for the training of students and emerging professionals. The works are being commissioned from an eclectic group of composers – 25 men and 25 women – and the collection is beginning to represent the truly globe-spanning state of the art of the string quartet in the 21st century. On May 5, we released the scores and parts, audio recordings, and many more resources for Fifty for the Future works by Raven Chacon, Rhiannon Giddens, Yotam Haber, Joan Jeanrenaud, and Aleksander Kościów, which join previously released pieces by Franghiz Ali-Zadeh, Ken Benshoof, Fodé Lassana Diabaté, Garth Knox, Nicole Lizée, Kala Ramnath, Tanya Tagaq, Merlijn Twaalfhoven, Aleksandra Vrebalov, and Wu Man.  Anyone can now learn to play these string quartets... including you!

I'd Rather Go Blind* by Gov't Mule (Etta James) 8/19/10  *First Time Played

"This version of the soundtrack, provisionally called Of Lies & Liars pt. 3 of 3 contains excerpts from 47 tracks culled from an earlier version containing over 120 tracks. I've been thinking about this theme (obviously continuing my ongoing Evil series) for the entire Trump administration (or further back to the 2016 campaign) because of the plethora of lies we've been forced to endure. However, some of the tracks I began collecting during the Bush era. (Lots of lies then, too, but probably fewer than now.) The list includes a few songs that I've used in past projects and possibly more songs I have hoped to deploy. I begin with Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World" because I associate it with being used in 2015 during Trump's candidacy for President. (Perhaps I'm mistaken.)

I think I've decided to share the edited playlist because from time to time folks ask about connections between my practice and DJ culture (like in my recent discussion). The video will take a while longer to complete, and I thought starting to edit the sound into some form would help me develop the video. Besides, I thought finally editing the sounds in this viral interstitial home time would help pass that difficult time.

I also connect American politics with modes of affect, like pop songs, and thought (as is usual for me) these selected tunes might complicate the texts I plan to use. I think I'm right, but we'll see." —Tony Cokes, April 2020
