Product description
Kronos Quartet's latest offering, "Long Time Passing: Kronos Quartet And Friends Celebrate Pete," is a rag-tag collection of covers paying homage to the legendary folk musician Pete Seeger. The album sees the quartet teaming up with a eclectic mix of musicians, from Zakir Hussain to Natalie Merchant, to breathe new life into Seeger's timeless classics. From the rousing rendition of "If I Had a Hammer" featuring Merrill Garbus to Sam Amidon's haunting take on "Which Side Are You On?," each track on this album feels like a love letter to Seeger's enduring legacy. The instrumental prowess of Kronos Quartet is on full display, weaving a rich tapestry of sound that is both emotive and captivating. However, not every collaboration hits the mark. The rendition of "We Shall Overcome" featuring Meklit feels somewhat lacklustre, failing to capture the essence of the iconic protest anthem. Additionally, some of the arrangements can feel a bit too polished, lacking the raw energy that made Seeger's music so impactful. Overall, "Long Time Passing" is a delightful tribute to a folk music icon, showcasing the versatility and creativity of Kronos Quartet. While some tracks may fall short of the mark, the album as a whole is a joyous celebration of Seeger's enduring influence. Sit back, relax, and let the music of Pete Seeger wash over you in all its folk glory.
