This is a masterpiece album by Meredeth Monk, a female voice performer born in Lima, Peru and based in the U.S., released in 1977 on German contemporary music label Wergo's Spectrum series. Andrea Goodman and Susan Kampe join in on voice and piano for a full-length experimental performance by the trio. Side A is a short track that features a voice performance using a variety of genesis methods. side B is a long, serene voice performance that repeats up and down movements like a wave with a minimalist refrain of piano and recorder in the background.
