George Crumb's first work for percussion ensemble, Kronos – Kryptos: Four Tableaux for Percussion Quintet received its world premiere at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in April 2019 and appears here in a facsimile of the composer's autograph manuscript. The composer revised the fourth movement ("Appalachian Echoes") in May 2020.
Due to the distance between players onstage, and in order to heighten certain theatrical elements in the score, a conductor is recommended for performance. This is a performing score. A minimum of five copies are required for performances.
