"When I think about Meredith Monk, I think of her alone, on a stage bereft of instruments or props or other people. Whether in a cavernous concert hall or in a tiny club, the vision of her lone self is dramatic. With a slight tilt of the head and a grounding of the body, she opens her mouth and begins to sing. In this simplest of actions, she reveals extraordinary power."

Bill,
ReplyDeleteThis blog is so wide-ranging and fascinating. It really extends our reach out of little old Anywhere to the best of arts throughout the world. It was great seeing you at Meredith Monk's concert the other night. She is a true treasure, uniquely creative, giving intense emotional meaning to every wordless utterance. She is inspirational! She is glorious!
My best to you, Lois Price
