Since 1978, the quartet has been based in San Francisco, California. The longest-running combination of performers (1978–1999) had Harrington and John Sherba on violin, Hank Dutt on viola and Joan Jeanrenaud on cello. Jennifer Culp replaced Jeanrenaud on cello in 1999. Jeffrey Zeigler replaced Culp on cello in 2005. Sunny Yang replaced Zeigler on cello in 2013. Paul Wiancko replaced Sunny Yang in 2023.
Recently, the Kronos Quartet began a commission process for composers under the age of 30, in the hope of bringing some of the talented young composers of our day to light.
Kronos specializes in new music and has a long history of commissioning new works. In fact, over 850 works have been created for the Kronos Quartet. They have worked with many minimalist composers including Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Terry Riley and Kevin Volans.
Kronos has collaborated with composers from diverse countries such as Franghiz Ali Zadeh from Azerbaijan and Osvaldo Golijov from Argentina. Golijov is a MacArthur Fellow who has done compositions and arrangements for Kronos CDs such as Caravan and Nuevo.
Kronos covers a very broad range of musical genres: Mexican folk, experimental, pre-classical early music, movie soundtracks (Requiem for a Dream), jazz and tango. Kronos has even recorded adaptations of Purple Haze, Flugufrelsarinn, Marquee Moon, and Dinner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals.
Composers aside, Kronos has teamed up with artists from around the world, including the legendary Bollywood "playback singer" Asha Bhosle; the American soprano Dawn Upshaw; Mexican pop-rockers Cafe Tacuba; and the Romanian gypsy band Taraf de Haidouks.
Kronos has performed live with the likes of the late poet Allen Ginsberg, Modern Jazz Quartet, David Bowie, and Bjork, and has appeared on recordings with such diverse talents as singer-songwriters Dave Matthews, Nelly Furtado, Rokia Traore, Joan Armatrading, and Texas yodeler Don Walser.

High on a rocky ledge lives a Mädel, Edelweiß
Shy as a shadow, lovely as lace, and cold as ice
High on a rocky ledge, I pledge my love to her
Ev'ry time I climb up to Paradise
How many times I've been up to see her, goodness knows
Huffing and puffing, dressed in the warmest climbing clothes
How many chances would be taken in my
Hopeless pursuit of the Schnee-Mädel-Edelweiß
Then spoke a spirit, "If you would win your Lady Love
There's only one way: fall to your death from high above
You will begin to grow in snow beside the one
You have waited for to be mated with"
Now, I'm an Edel, vice to my Mädel, Edelweiß
Dying to be with her wasn't any sacrifice
We're so deliriously happy on our ledge
Where I pledge my love to my Lady Fair
You who are climbing breathless to see me and my love
Snow flowers growing fonder on Lover's Ledge above
If you've the yen to pluck, then pluck us both
For we who have lived as one wish to die as one
@TheTimeshadows
Truly lovely, and such wonderful music as well.
@sophiecats4081
Mesmerizing as ever ✨
@funkyjuicerecords
Awesome! It reminds me the "Picnic At Hanging Rock" Atmosphere!
@jansmith8323
This is absolutely stunning.
@FREDgiannelli
Love it !!! I'm a Psychic TV friend of Marissa's. I remember seeing Moondog on the street in 1969 on my very first family trip to NYC when I was a little boy. We went to Radio City Music Hall to see the Steve McQueen movie BULLIT and I have a distant memory of seeing that crazy guy with the viking costume on, on the sidewalk.
@user-ks9kx1qr1v
Hi, I also like Moondog. And what about RIO music?
@stevewerthner1022
I just discovered Moondog. I love his original version, and this is just gorgeous.
@fwabcaf
I really really like this. Very well done, excited to hear the whole album now!
@littlejulita
I'm a big fan of Moondog. This version makes me very emotional cause this is one of my favorite songs of his. So touching and moving.
@osamus1796
Wow Marissa's voice and style are always soo ethereal. She's just phenomenal in everything she does :)
