“For the Children” with vocalist Shira Lissek
Fourth Digital, Mini-Album from the “In Their Own Voice” Series
Released by MEII Enterprises
January 12, 2015—Today Eugene Marlow’s MEII Enterprises indie label released the fourth digital only, mini-album from the “In Their Own Voice” series. This album features the prodigious talent of vocalist Shira Lissek singing “For The Children” based on a Latin-tinged composition by Eugene Marlow and lyrics by Janet Lawson. Marlow’s Heritage Ensemble is featured.
“For the Children” inspires adults and parents to support children in their quest to be true to themselves.
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. The third mini-album also featured vocalist Shira Lissek singing “Go Like the Wind,” with lyrics by Ellen Woloshin.
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 has released each of the mini-albums since July 14, 2014 and will continue with additional mini-albums through 2016. Each album is now available for either streaming or download at cd.baby.com.
