Meredith Monk’s A Celebration of Service

The UP Diliman College of Music in cooperation with the Musical Arts and Research Management Foundation, Inc. presents a spiritually inspired performance piece created by internationally acclaimed American composer and pioneer of interdisciplinary performance Meredith Monk. The work uses her musical compositions, movement and texts from the world’s great religions, thus creating a contemporary ritual, which celebrates the larger community of mankind and the power of the human spirit. Directed by Fulbright Visiting Specialist Tom Bogdan, A Celebration of Service features dances restaged by Allison Easter plus numbers by the UP Junior Music Education Guild, UP Madrigal Singers, and UP Dance Company. Performance is on 30 January 2015, 6:30 p.m., at the Abelardo Hall in UP Diliman.
