A Jazzy upbeat Brazilian-tinged high-spirited Carol Albert Composition & Piano Performance w/featured Ragan Whiteside on Flute and Magdalena Chovancova on Saxophone
Album Notes
A bright and high spirited, Brazilian-tinged celebration of creative freedom, the track features Carol on piano and wordless vocals in an ensemble featuring two of the genre’s most acclaimed emerging female artists, flutist Ragan Whiteside and saxophonist Magdalena Chovancova from the chart-topping German band Threestyle. Produced, written and arranged by Carol and mixed by Paul Brown, the track features the dynamic rhythm section of Nathaniel Kearney (Bass) , drummer Jay Williams and Curtis McCain (Percussion). Carol’s most recent chart success was “Chasing Waterfalls,” which stayed on the Billboard National Smooth Jazz Airplay chart and Smooth Jazz Songs chart for 10 weeks, peaking at #15. It also was #1 on Groove Jazz for two weeks, reached #4 on the Smooth Jazz Top 20 and also reached the Top 20 on the SmoothJazz.com chart. Her previous single, the title track to her album Fly Away Butterfly, stayed on the Billboard charts for 18 weeks, peaking at #5. The collection’s first single “One Way,” reached the Top 30 on the Billboard charts "A versatile Emmy nominated musician, composer and educator, Carol emerged from a period of successful new age recordings to become one of the most exciting new artists on the Billboard airplay charts with a whole new approach fusing colorful melodies, exciting grooves and world rhythms, gorgeous wordless vocals and Latin/Brazilian leanings. Her extraordinary new track “Femme Flight” is the perfect follow-up to the optimism, vibe and vibrancy of her songs on Fly Away Butterfly. It has all the elements of a sure-fire breakaway hit – an infectious melody, explosive Brazilian-flavored rhythms, a sparkling lead piano melody, graceful wordless vocals - and exciting guest performances by two other fast emerging female artists in the genre, Ragan Whiteside and Magdalena Chovancova that combine with Carol’s magic touch to create a truly inspiring ensemble.” Jonathan Widran, Jazziz Magazine, The JW Vibe
