The anniversary concert for the Kronos Quartet started with a brief video run through of their forty years. Then the first half of the concert featured Terry Riley's the Serquent and Glass's String Quartet no 6. For the second half, they were joined firstly by Bryce Dessner on electric guitar for his 40 Canons; then by Jarvis Cocker on saw for his KERF; then Mariana Sadovska singing and playing harmonium for Chernobyl, The Harvest. Finally, there were two encores which kept those wanting to get their trains on tenterhooks.
