The Kronos Quartet performing with dancers in 1997

The latest Kronos disc, “Rainbow,” a collaboration with the Afghan rubab player Homayun Sakhi and the Azerbaijian singers Alim and Fargana Qasimov, comes out in March on the Smithsonian Folkways label as part of a superb Central Asian series sponsored by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture.

Mr. Sakhi and the Qasimovs will be among a plethora of guests joining Kronos in four concerts at Carnegie Hall in March, the continuation of the Perspectives series, which began in November with a program presented during Carnegie’s Ancient Paths, Modern Voices festival.
