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. Plus: many photographs (some previously unpublished), quotes from the press, archival documents, and more.
