Her talent is awesome!!! "Six Songs Just For You" EP Review: Geneva World - Girl Power Flower Hour - KCRH I see a bit of Fiona Apple or Tori Amos fame in her future. Mike McGuirk - Staff Writer - listen.com Angelic-voiced pianist plays stark, melancholic arias that are as scary as they are pretty. The sound of loneliness. 69.9 TeKa Radio AM 2 - MP3.com Radio Station Melancholy and mysterious, Notes On Mary. Mary Lemanski is a very talented pianist with a beautiful voice. This song is very "low-key" and yet it has the ability to stir up deep imagery and emotion in the listener, at least it did with me.
