MARILYN MAZUR GROUP FLOW
 
DIGITAL-FRONTCOVER-FLOW_1400x1400px-MM.png

2023  |  CYH

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.

Fredrik Lundin  mezzo soprano- and tenor saxophone and bass flute
Krister Jonsson  guitar and pedals
Klavs Hovman  el.bass, el.upright bass, double bass, pedals
Marilyn Mazur  drums, kalimba, voice and percussion

(udu, bells, gongs, sundrum, afro kalimba, bamboo,
hubback and paiste sounds and more)

MARILYN MAZUR'S SHAMANIA
 
SHAMANIA_MM_CYH_Front_Cover.jpg

2022  |  CYH

Shamania is the name of the band that Marilyn founded in 2015. Its shamanic spirit is based on the idea of a modern tribal gathering of female musical forces that focuses entirely on rhythm, body and voice in an experimental context and the challenge of finding a common ground.

The ten women of Shamania are among the most independent musicians on the Scandinavian scene, and live in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. When they meet, they bring through their formidable energies - a primal power and fascinating rhythms to the stage and enchant the listener with at mospheric moods and moments of pure amazement. The very same qualities have now been captured on their second album: REROOTING combines 16 songs, a combination of both Marilyn's brand new and older compositions, which have all been, with one exception, previously unreleased.

Josefine Cronhol voice, Hildegunn Øiseth trumpet and goat horn, Lotte Anker tenor and soprano saxophone, Sissel Vera Pettersen voiceand alto saxophone, Lis Wessberg trombone, Makiko Hirabayashi piano and keyboard, Ida Gormsen electric bass, Lisbeth Diers congas and percussion, Anna Lund drums, Marilyn Mazur composer/leader, percussion,balaphone and kalimbain

Marilyn Mazur’s Future Song’s new exciting album «Live Reflections» is now available on Stunt Rec, with new releases of live recordings, plus «Reflections» from the very first studio recording with the original band.

Drummer and co-producer Audun Kleive has added a unique touch to the dynamic and intense, yet lyrical sound picture.

1988

Live at the Philharmonic Concert Hall
Complete Edition

Liner notes:
"Miles Davis was, for nearly 50 years, one of the most innovative figures in music. This concert from 1988 constitutes probably the best representation of Miles during his final decade. The music he was making three years before his death was obviously funky, but there are also some superb ballads performed here, as well as a number of tracks from his celebrated album Tutu. This set showcases a very tight band, and percussionist Marilyn Mazur is outstanding throughout."
