Yikes, that's one eclectic freaking mix of string quartets!  Also, Kronos Quartet doesn't actually write (or arrange) anything, so there could be no pieces by them.

Anyways, here's mine:
Led Zepplin - Kashmir (it's supposed to be a string patch...I think)
The Beatles - Eleanor Rigby
and that's about it, except for one that deserves mentioning even though it's originally written for a string quartet:
Beethoven's late string quartets.  They're absolutely incredible, and if anyone tells me that it's really sad he never heard them (like my dad does), I'm going to be upset.  Of course he heard them.  He just never heard them performed.

Well, out of those three quartets I only like Kronos, and their performances could very well be on the thread. Mother Nozipo  especially.


Kashmir is indeed great, unfortunately in my mind it will always be tainted by Puff Daddy's raping.
