Para desgracia del secretario de Estado de los Estados Unidos, George Marshall, mientras lanzaba un discurso furibundamente anticomunista, llegó Evita acaparando todas las cámaras, todos los micrófonos, todas las miradas y la mayoría de las sonrisas aliviadas de los cancilleres que estaban hartos de escuchar la voz autoritaria y monocorde del “jefe” Marshall.

the authoritarian and monochord voice of the "boss"

"monotonous" might be just as good, given that "monochord" is used more in connection with music.
