 Harlow’s  dynamic  composition  complements  the  polyrhythmic  and  infectious  style  of  Marlow’s  colossal   force.  While  Harlow   is   regarded  as  one  of   the  most   gifted   Latin  music  pianists  of   all-­‐time,  Rosado   undoubtedly   forged   a   reputation   as   a   legendary   artist   in   his   own   right,   having  dedicated   his   life   to   inspiring   audiences   both   young   and  mature   to   the   stellar   tunes   of   hard-­‐hitting    salsa.      Marlow  Rosado  has  worked  with  a  diverse  repertoire  of  artists   including  the  cherished  Tejana    icon,  Selena  Quintanilla,  megawatt  star,  Ricky  Martin,  Songwriters  Hall  of  Fame  pillar,  Desmond  Child,  and  chart-­‐topping  Mexican  rocker,  Alejandra  Guzmán,  to    Puerto  Rican  Merengue  Queen,  Olga  Tañón,  among  other  influential  musicians.      This  is  Marlow  Rosado’s  fourth  album  and  first  recording  with  new  material  in  over  a  decade  for    Larry  Harlow,  an  epic  studio  return  for  this  artist  who  has  over  fifty  records  under  his  belt.  “I  had  a  chance  to  collaborate  with  Larry  Harlow  on  many  stages  and  projects  over  the  years.  Harlow  Marlow  Volume  1  is  my  way  of  saying  thank  you  for  inspiring  me,  for  what  you’ve  done  for  Latin  music  and  the  opportunity  for  us  to  simply  jam  the  way  real  salsa  heads  do  ”,  added  Rosado,  on  working  with  his  mentor,  collaborator  and  friend.    The   critically-­‐praised  duo  will   electrify   the   city  of  Miami  with   their  musical  prowess  during  an  exclusive   March   10th   performance   at   Marlow   Rosado’s   venue   of   residency,   El   Tucán-­‐-­‐a  sophisticated  cabaret  that  echoes  Cuba’s  influence  on  Hollywood’s  golden  era,  often  frequented  by  notables  such  as  Will  Smith.      Harlow  Marlow  Volume  1,  released  by  Bivira  Music,  will  be  available  for  purchase  on   iTunes,  Amazon,  and  other  retailers  this  March.    TRACK  CONFIGURATIONS  FOR  HARLOW  MARLOW  VOLUME  1:
