Iconoclastic composer and performer Meredith Monk looks to the future through an intergenerational production with the Young People’s Chorus of New York City. The “body sings and the voice dances” in this program that captures the kinetic energy and pioneering philosophy of Monk’s six-decade exploration of the human voice as an instrument, transmitted and luminously present in this U.S. premiere of her multidimensional, multiperceptual work. Co-presented by The House Foundation for the Arts and Young People’s Chorus of New York City.
