Music director David Robertson and the St. Louis Symphony Chorus and Orchestra will join with composer Meredith Monk and her eponymous vocal ensemble to perform three works by Monk - including one so new that it doesn't yet have a name - framed by compositions by Stravinsky and Bartok. It promises to be a fascinating and musically worthwhile evening at Powell Symphony Hall.
