Meredith Monk at Freud Playhouse

Classifying Meredith Monk’s music is a fool’s errand. Her work blends art song, dance, theater and set design into a total experience centered on her rare and powerful voice. Her newest work, “On Behalf of Nature,” explores our relationship and ties to the natural world. Freud Playhouse, UCLA. 8 p.m. Fri. $40-$45. cap.ucla.edu.
