Summary/Abstract: An article devoted to Meredith Monk, a singer, and a film and theater director. Stasiowska describes the projects, plays, and films she has been creating for over fifty years. Analyzing the Meredith Monk & Vocal Ensemble Songs of Ascension performed at the Polski Theater in Wrocław in March 2011, she tries to mark out the attributes characteristic of Monk’s work, such as the unified treatment of sound and body movement, resulting from Monk’s sight disabilities, and the Dalcrouz rhythm lessons she attended as a child.
