Meredith Monk Dolmen Music Meredith Monk is an American composer and performer, widely renowned for her vocal innovations. Listeners will also be very pleased to find that her wonderful voice is not crowded or overshadowed. When Meredith Monk performed at New Yorks Town Hall on West Forty-Third in January 1973 she had only recently turned 30 and this was, after years of experimental music, dance and multi-media projects, a big moment for her. This minimalist support only furthers Monk's vast vocal language as the prominent focus in the recordings. On Songs of Ascension she teams up with a string quartet of New York players well versed in new. Most of the musical accompaniment is minimalist (mainly piano with occasional, sparse percussion, guest vocalists also being prominent on the final six-part track "Dolmen Music"). In recent years Meredith Monk’s been expanding into the worlds of orchestra and string quartet.
On Dolmen Music, Monk wavers from being sad to the point of being quite morose (such as the tracks "Gotham Lullaby" and "The Tale") to being happy to the point of hysteria (as on "Traveling" and "Biography") without skipping a beat. Listeners who can get past just how unique and abstract her approach is will find immense joy and sadness deep within her pieces. Meredith Monk has such a wonderful and unique vocal style that she is able to sing in complete abstraction (no known words or language for much of the album) yet maintain a very emotional and even sentimental quality in these abstractions, at times.
