Kronos Quartet Long Time Passing: Kronos Quartet & Friends Celebrate Pete Seeger
Release Date: October 9, 2020
Label: Smithsonian Folkways
On Long Time Passing, the trailblazing Kronos Quartet celebrates the music of Pete Seeger and rejoices in the spirit, inspiration, and fearlessness inherent in his life’s work. Along with guests including Sam Amidon, Meklit, Lee Knight, and Aoife O’Donovan, the group examines Seeger’s celebration of beauty and the pleasure of singing together. Through the power of these eternally relevant cries for unity and moral integrity, the album articulates the responsibility we have as citizens and members of a greater community to question war and injustice, and to develop the courage to raise our voices together both in word and song. Available on vinyl, CD and digitally.
