Meredith Monk 50th Anniversary Concert
Town Hall Performance NYC
I am thrilled to be returning to Carnegie Hall for the Meredith Monk 50th Anniversary Concert.
Meredith will be celebrating fifty years of music making, film making, and theater works. Her innovative pioneering of extended vocal technique bumped me out of the classical music world, into a world of possible sounds and free-flying voice. Check out my blog post: How I Cracked My Voice Wide Open. Although I have moved in various directions along the path toward Powerful Presence®, my early years with Meredith opened the gateways to the miracles of voice.
The concert will move chronologically through selections from Meredith’s decades of work. I will join her for Dolmen Music, an a cappella vocal sextet, with cello, inspired by the dolmens of Stonehenge.
I love to perform Dolmen Music! It is like entering into an ancient community with far reaching antennae and living there for twenty minutes. In the image above, you can see us performing Dolmen Music at Town Hall in New York City in 2004. From left to right, we are Paul Langland, Robert Een, Robert Osborne, Meredith Monk, Naaz Hosseini, and Andrea Goodman.
If you are in the New York City Area on May 2, you may want to check this out.
