Join Mark Lawson, President of ECS Music Publishing Group, and composer Karen Marrolli as they discuss several of Marrolli's new musical pieces designed for both school and church settings. The conversation delves into the inspirations behind her compositions, including newly released works, "Hear My Voice,” "We Belong," and "Weave Us Into Community." Marrolli's approach to creating music transcends the boundaries between sacred and secular and highlights themes of unity, care, and interconnectedness.

In one of our new composer interview formats, we asked Karen Marrolli to do a lightning round by telling us five things we didn't know about her (and weren't in her bio).
