When it comes to performances by Meredith Monk, you should leave your expectations at the door, as one of the defining traits of Monk’s composing and performing is that they defy conventional ideas about what music should be or sound like. Monk employs a deeply intuitive approach to her compositions that occasionally make use of improvisational techniques, resulting in playful, exciting, enigmatic, forward-thinking and surprising experiences for an audience. As part of our special focus programme on her for Rewire 2022, she will be giving an artist talk on Sunday 10 April.

Meredith Monk will be interviewed live on Sunday 10 April.
