Mili Bermejo
For more than two decades, Boston-based vocalist/composer Mili Bermejo has transcended the borders between cultures and musical genres.

Mili Bermejo: A Time For Love
by Mark Sabbatini
From the opening it's got that ever-so-subtle touch that separates moving ballads from cocktail lounge fodder. A Time For Love finds singer Mili Bermejo in a less-is-more setting, relying mostly on a piano and bass backing instead of the sextets and octets from her past few albums. It's a wise choice for an album ...
