Enjoy Kronos, Wu Man Feb. 9

By jessica moore

The cutting-edge Kronos Quartet and pipa virtuoso Wu Man perform a Candler Series Concert as part of Founders Week on Saturday, Feb. 9, at 8 p.m. in the Schwartz Center.

On the program is a piece of industrial music the string quartet will perform on self-made instruments constructed from items found in Emory’s construction debris and junkyards. Wu Man, known for introducing audiences to the pipa, a lute-like instrument, joins Kronos to perform Terry Riley’s “The Cusp of Magic.”
