Vocalist, composer, improviser, tireless explorer and experimenter in the use of the human voice, Marilena Paradisi's work ranges from jazz to total improvisation and contemporary classics. She is internationally recognised for the richness of expression and her talent for interpretation, with reviews in the top international magazines of the sector like Jazzhot, Jazztimes, Musica Jazz, Jazzit; Cadence etc. She is among the few Italian singers to be reviewed in the prestigious American magazine JazzTimes, in 2002, for both her debut CD and also 2017 for her latest and eighth CD as a leader: Some Place Called Where (Losen Records 2017). Here Marilena Paradisi met the legendary piano master Kirk Lightsey for a recording of intimate and great songs. Christopher Loudon of Jazz Times said of this recording, "Paradisi demonstrates the same captivating ability to fully meld with the songs without dampening their distinct moods." From 2002 to 2014, Marilena brought out as many as 7 albums as a leader, in collaboration with important Italian and international musicians. The first three were jazz albums: I’ll Never Be The Same (Philology 2002), with the Eliot Zigmund trio, Intimate Conversation (Abeat Records 2004) duetting with bassist Pietro Leveratto, the live CC Pensiero, Homage to Gino Paoli, in trio with Renato Sellani and Dino Piana (Philology 2007). The last three CDs consist of contemporary music and total improvisation, Raibow Inside (Silta Records 2010), with guitarist Arturo Tallini, Prelude For Voice and Silence (Siltaclassics 2011) solo voice in duo with Japanese singer Michiko Hirayama. The sixth CD in her name Come dirti, with special guest Stefania Tallini and now the seventh original project The cave, dialogues between echoes of stone with percussionist Ivan Macera; (SiltaRecords 2013), a research about the sound in the Paleolitic Era that she presented at Auditorium Parco della Musica in Rome.
