“Go Like the Wind” with vocalist Shira Lissek
Third Digital, Mini-Album from the “In Their Own Voice” Series
Released by MEII Enterprises
October 4, 2014—Today Eugene Marlow’s MEII Enterprises indie label released the third digital only, mini-album from the “In Their Own Voice” series. This album features the prodigious talent of vocalist Shira Lissek singing “Go Like the Wind” based on a Latin-tinged composition by Eugene Marlow and lyrics by Ellen Woloshin. The musicians feature Grammy-winning virtuoso pianist Arturo O’Farrill, with Bobby Porcelli on alto saxophone.
“Go Like the Wind” inspires the listener to let go of the past, get past fears, and move forward in one’s life.
The first album in the series—released in mid-July–featured French lyricist/songstress Amelie Cherubin on three tracks with original music by composer/producer Eugene Marlow. The second mini-album featured songstress/lyricist Anne Mironchik (“A Perfect Storm”). Marlow’s Heritage Ensemble is featured on both these albums.
Marlow has produced over 240 jazz and classical pieces for solo instruments, chamber ensembles, and jazz big band. Now for the first time he is collaborating with a highly talented cadre of female lyricists/vocalists—all the tracks/lyrics center on relationships and feelings from a woman’s perspective. Like much of Marlow’s past work, the mini-album series is multi-cultural: the lyricists/vocalists come from many backgrounds, including American, Canadian, French, Hispanic, and Hebraic.
Marlow plans to release each of the mini-albums over a period of months starting July 14, 2014. Each album is now available for either streaming or download at cd.baby.com.
