We enjoyed the sounds of Marieann's angelic voice for our wedding reception. Hire her if you want the "Wow" factor. Each song was filled with emotion that tugged at the heart and soul of all of guests. Years later, our guest still rave about Marieann! We do too!
I was completely mesmerized and enthralled with Marieann Meringolo's Michel Legrand tribute show this past spring. She is a total artist - poised, elegant and funny - but the voice is the true star. Reminiscent of Streisand, Carpenter, Ann Murray, - she sings this difficult music with a lush velvet smooth tone that has been missing in our singers today. New York cabaret is at her feet. Now she will conquer the world! Brava!
I had the opportunity to see Marieann Meringolo perform on a recent cruise, and believe me it was pure bliss. Her performance was a musical celebration of wonderful standards that never go out of style with fresh, bold arrangements. And a voice...what can I say about her voice? Her voice was big, colossal, titanic, astonishing, prodigious,stupendous, and so easy to listen to. In addition, she has such a great connection with the audience, sharing personal experiences sprinkled with extraordinary humor. I found her to be the consummate professional. I loved her performances, and I can't wait to repeat the experience.
We were absolutely enchanted with Marieann's performance. I don't want to limit my remarks to her incredibly beautiful voice, because her presence and personal charm add to the fabulous evening's experience. We would rush to see her, again.
Price Range: $450-4,500
