Own a piece of the Meredith Monk archive!

A non-narrative work with images and movement featuring members of Meredith Monk & Vocal Ensemble, The Politics of Quiet: a music theater oratorio echoed the structure of an oratorio or service presenting a contemporary community of people who performed a rite of passage to enter into the new millennium. With no defined characters or narrative, this “ritual” in five sections, each with its own distinctive mood, was enacted by an ensemble cast of ten singer-dancers, two instrumentalists, and two children.
