About

Meredith Monk: The Recordings, a 13-CD limited box set edition compiling all Meredith Monk ECM New Series recordings to date, is issued on the occasion of the composer and singer's 80th birthday. Meredith was the first singer to have a leader-date on ECM Records and has released her music with the label since Dolmen Music in 1981.

This beautifully designed box set incorporates a 300-page book reprising all original liner notes, as well as new texts and interviews. Additionally the book includes an introductory essay by Frank J. Oteri, "The Worlds of Meredith Monk", an autobiographical text by Meredith titled "The Soul's Messenger" and a preface by Manfred Eicher. Plus: many photographs (some previously unpublished), quotes from the press, archival documents, and more.

"Monk has mapped a world that never quite existed in the history of the arts. At once visceral and ethereal, raw and rapt, her works banish the spurious complexities of urban life and reveal a kind of underground civilization, one that sings, dances, and meditates on timeless forces." – Alex Ross, The New Yorker

Reviews

[Meredith] Monk’s distinct musical world was contained for posterity on these groundbreaking albums […] and it’s supported by a lavish 300-page book of original notes, interviews and photos.
