This 2009 recording deepens the Kronos Quartet's exploration of global musical languages, emphasizing Arabic and Indian classical traditions. Floodplain's extended pieces—particularly the 12-minute Getme, Getme and the deep raga meditation—invite immersive listening. The string arrangements capture the ornamental complexity of these traditions while maintaining the ensemble's signature clarity and precision. The interplay between structure and improvisational freedom reflects the source traditions' own aesthetics. For longtime Kronos listeners and anyone drawn to contemporary classical music that genuinely engages with world traditions, Floodplain is a standout in their catalog.
