Product Description

Mary Beth MaziarzÂ’s long-awaited new release, "Wish", continues in the tradition of Maziarz's other fine albums with strong writing, infectious rhythms, and heartstrings-a-pullin', but is infused with a freshness and energy that is absolutely stunning. The 14-song album covers a lot of territory; from the taunting, soaring dark opening of "Every Little Thing You Ever Wanted" to the sighing, parting glance, "Til Then," the listener is in for an emotion-filled, rich ride. Maziarz defines life's moments in a seemingly effortless way -- in songs like "This Is Our Life," "The Girl Goes Round," and "Lonesome in Love," listeners may find themselves awestruck as images from their lives (or othersÂ’) play like movies across glorious three-minute spans. But "Wish" carefully sidesteps the sappy, mushy paths that so many singer-songwriters tread. This is thinking-person's music: lyrics filled with ideas and poetic phrasing leaning up against rootsy, grooving rhythms. It's a rare, irresistible combination of simple and lush -- a gorgeous mix of clarity and complex. The difference between "Wish" and Maziarz's other albums seems to emerge most in the instrumentation; a fresh, taut production and fantastic energy inhabits the whole record. Although less pianocentric than her other records, "Wish" is still keyboard-driven, utilizing vintage Rhodes, Wurlitzer, and Hammond B3 sounds to strong effect and texture. And Maziarz's voice is, well, something special. Honest, clear, rich, smooth, growling, sly, kind, dreamy, haunting, sexy; these qualities all emerge from her vocal on Â“WishÂ”, while somehow never leaving its recognizable foundation of alto intimacy. "Wish" is not easily classifiable -- is it pop? Rock? AAA? Alt-funk-folk? -- but ground-breaking, really interesting music rarely is simple to describe. Maziarz has found solid success in soundtracks, which these songs will surely support, but most interesting may be the way these songs become soundtracks in your life.

WISH .......2007-01-04

Meaningful lyrics combined with Mary Beth's incredible voice make this a truly memorable album. Highly recommend it!!!

A Wish Come True.......2005-09-26

Mary Beth Maziarz has completely outdone herself with the release of her album "Wish". This album is a watershed event for her and her fans, demonstrating Mary Beth's maturity, confidence, and vocal and instrumental musicianship. "Wish" is Mary Beth's most dynamic, energetic, insightful, and musically enjoyable work she has released. The fourteen tracks on "Wish" move the listener from the quiet intimacy of piano and vocal solos through lush arrangements with string ensemble to full out bluesy pop with guitars, synthesizers, and drums. Mary Beth worked with producer Craig Poole to make "Wish" the most complete and thoroughly musical album she has released.

"Wish" centers on a general theme fitting the album's title. The songs focus on various aspects of desire, whether it is longing, yearning, hoping, craving or wanting. The album gently asks questions of the listeners, presents musical landscapes to ponder and review, and provides windows to various types of desire in relationships. The songs are intertwined into this singular theme, but are independently vibrant and complete in and of themselves. Picking highlights on "Wish" become challenging for the listener because every song on the album is entirely enjoyable. Personal favorites include "This is Our Life", "Lone Boat on the Harbor", "True Believer", and "Til Then".

The song list is provided below:

1. Every Little Thing You Ever Wanted
2. Better
3. This Is Our Life
4. Deeper Love
5. Circle of Desire
6. The Road
7. My Deep Blue Love For You
8. Now You're Here
9. Lone Boat on the Harbor
10. The Girl Goes 'Round
11. Lonesome in Love
12. Goin' On
13. True Believer (as heard on "Bianca - Wege Zum Gluck")
14. Til Then

This is the sixth studio album that Mary Beth Maziarz has released independently on her Musaic Records label. Clearly, this is Mary Beth's best and most complete musical work.

Buy this album and know with confidence that it is one of the best albums you will ever own.

Polished modern Christian music.......2005-07-21

Singer-songwriter-composer Marc Hoffman delivers an album of contemporary Christian songs with a soft-rock-soul-gospel vibe. Eight of the dozen numbers are self-penned, to which Hoffman adds covers of `There is a Quiet Place', `Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing', `Jesus Loves Me' and `On Eagle's Wings'.

Hoffman performs piano and electronic keyboards, while his band contribute additional vocals, organ, acoustic and electric guitars, drums and, giving an authentic North Carolinian touch (Hoffman is a native of the state), hammered dulcimer. The singer as an appealing light tenor voice which sits well in his own polished arrangements, with the title track having an especially catchy and effective heart.

The new material often has a singer-songwriter `60's feel, with mostly strong melodies and sufficiently substantial lyrics to prove a major relief to anyone frustrated by the endless choruses of much current Christian music. From the anthemic quality of the chorus of `In Peace' to the more gospel-like `Always Been There' the disc has something for just about any lover of mainstream Christian song. Hoffman's piano is usually to the fore - particularly on a number like `Eagle's Wings' - and he plays with a graceful ease, providing a sturdy rock upon which to sing His praises.

Decidedly different to Hoffman's other album available on Amazon, the instrumental piano disc `Long Way Home', and one clearly aimed squarely at the Christian audience. Anyone who buys `Dream of God' taking the title fully into account should be more than satisfied.
