the group released

their 2nd album

«FLOW»

For the Marilyn Mazur Group, Marilyn has gathered some of her closest musical friends. All of them are very creative individualists, that have worked together for a long time.

With its warm and communicating music, the band invites the listener in for an adventure, with both physical and spiritual qualities to explore. Marilyn’s multicolored original compositions and imaginative poetic visions for this band create an intense and melodic experience with lots of spontaneous energy.

In December 2010 Marilyn Mazur Group released their double CD Tangled Temptations & The Magic Box, one CD being a live-recording of Marilyn’s music for the nonverbal new interpretation of the play “Beggar’s Opera”, the other CD is an expressive studio-recording.

See the new vidoes from the session here!

The album starts with a fine, African-style kalimba melody, then the "thumb piano" soon becomes more rhythmic, the guitar, bass and soprano saxophone gently tune in, then finally, Marilyn Mazur sings a few bars, and grabs the sticks – making the sound more determined, "electric", funky and rousing. The second song, "Summer Night Sky," is a counterpoint to the opener: what takes place in transfigured stillness and range moves slowly, quietly, spherically – Fredrik Lundin's bass flute, a sustained, long drawn-out guitar, and the bass sounds of Krister Jonsson and Klavs Hovman can be heard, here and there a gong: An interlude before "Energy Hop," when the music with the tenor saxophone, fired by driving cymbals and drums, picks up speed, the guitar intersperses a few weird, melodious tones here and there and the electric bass groovingly keeps the band’s feet on the ground. A fourth track, "Garden Moments," follows, one of three collective improvisations, here rhythmically opened with Marilyn's tongue drum.
