Limited run of 50 CDs. Comes in a sleeve designed by Meerenai. Includes an insert designed and printed by Meerenai on her inkjet printer.

Ten years since her last solo album, trail-blazing flutist Meerenai Shim releases her fourth. The Audacity combines virtuosic flute performances and modern record production techniques in a delightful sonic package. Anchored by the evergreen “Vermont Counterpoint” by Steve Reich and augmented by newly commissioned works from The Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker, Brent Miller, Janice Misurell-Mitchell, and Meghann Wilhoite, The Audacity is Meerenai’s most cohesive project to date. When she designed the album cover, Meerenai happened to hand-write her name and it turns out that The Audacity is truly her signature recording project.
