as others also stated, qemu monitor is also available through vnc. maybe 
your vnc client blocks ALT. i have to click on the titlebar and choose 
"Alt" (realvnc). 

but mostly i do redirect montior to a socket. with this command line 
switches:  -monitor unix:/var/run/kvm-<vm-name>,server,nowait

i then connect  with a tool called socat (socat stdio /var/run/kvm-<vm-
name>).

don't try to exit the console with "quit". :)
