Kronos Quartet

In the dark days of late December 2025 and early January 2026, the people of Iran, once again rose up to demand a future built on freedom, justice, and dignity. What followed was an unprecedented tragedy—the worst massacre in contemporary Iranian history. Amidst communication blackouts and silenced communications, tens of thousands of lives were lost, and countless more were injured or unjustly imprisoned.

This heartbreak is part of a long, painful struggle. Since 1979, Iranians—women, students, workers, and ethnic minorities—have faced censorship, political imprisonment, enforced disappearances, and profound violence simply for demanding their basic human rights.

They tried to silence the voices, but the music remains.

Today, we are deeply honored to premiere a new musical tribute to the enduring spirit of the young heroes who gave their lives for a beautiful future.
