Recognized as one of the most unique and influential artists of our time, Meredith Monk and members of her acclaimed Vocal Ensemble join forces with Alarm Will Sound for a night of works spanning her singular career, including Night, Realm Variations and the world premiere of The Five Jewels and Hands in the Dirt from Indra’s Net (instrumental suite), an all-orchestral adaptation of music from her latest evening-length performance work.

Composer, singer, director/choreographer and creator of new opera, music-theater works, films and installations, Meredith Monk is a pioneer in what is now called “extended vocal technique” and “interdisciplinary performance.” Celebrating her 60th Season of performing and creating, she has been hailed as one of National Public Radio’s 50 Great Voices and “one of America’s coolest composers.” She founded Meredith Monk & Vocal Ensemble in 1978 to expand her groundbreaking exploration of the human voice.
