Meredith Monk: I. Learning Her Body Through Music

Meet the Composer - Podcast készítő Q2 Music, WQXR

Kategóriák:

From an extremely young age, music and movement were braided together for Meredith. Her earliest musical instruction was in Dalcroze Eurhythmics, which teaches students concepts of rhythm, structure, and musical expression through the motion of their own bodies. Born into a musical family, music came easily to Meredith, but movement didn't. For Meredith, instead of learning music through movement, Dalcroze taught her her body through music. Once these two arts were fuzed together, Meredith never unstuck them, creating sophisticated works that existed in that liminal space from the get-go.
