Whether she is writing arrangements for winds, string quartet, or a solo keyboard,
Marianne Osiel brings fresh color to her work. Her experiences as a multi-instrumentalist —
she plays seven instruments ranging from oboe to slide guitar — informs and enhances her own
arrangements.
In addition to orchestrations for her own pieces, she has done arrangements for a variety of
artists including David Olney (Rounder Records), Susan Piper (Sliced Bread Records), and Ashley
Cleveland (RCA). Another arrangement appeared on Tanya Savory’s “Town To Town” (“Time Was”,
featuring the oboe). “Christmas On the Border” (Regency Entertainment) features Marianne on
slide guitar on “The Virgin Mary Had a Baby Boy”. She most recently arranged strings for Bob
Hillman on his album, “Welcome To My Century” (Brave New Records).

Sample cuts of Marianne’s
arrangements include “1917”, a string quartet arrangement on a David Olney song
recorded in 1998 for “Through A Glass Darkly”, and a string quartet, “All The Joy” for
Susan Piper’s CD recording, “The Truth Comes Out.” The 3rd selection is a woodwind
arrangement (oboes, flutes) on “Green Light” from the CD “Strange Girl” (Maitri Music).
