They are all uniquely interactive and multilingual, and will highlight the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

<h2>
The album is getting some spectacular reviews!</h2>
Steve Sheppard of One World Music says <em>"Radiant....The cleverness of the performers on this album is simply sublime...." </em><br /> <br /> Bill Binkelman of Zone Music Reporter and Retailing Insight magazine says <em>"Seldom do three musicians work together to such a degree that it almost seems as if they are of the same mind and same body, operating in unison to express a singular musical vision – and the vision represented on this album is daring and beautiful." </em><br /> <br /> And Candice Michelle of journeyscapesradio.com, says, <em>"Uniquely defying strict genre classification, the album’s lovely musical ensemble continually evolves and unfolds throughout, as one instrument often seems to transmute into another. Essentially meditative with a defined experimental edge, ‘Echappees Etheriques’ is sure to appeal to many fans of new age, neoclassical and improvisational instrumental music!"</em><br />
All you have to do is order <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./f5063e45ae/b1aaddaad1/df08701aca">Ethereal Escapes</a> and send me your address and proof of purchase...

All of the music we make is peaceful and promoting of peace and harmony. From our <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./cabd74f68f/d3f452150d/117d58c21f">We Agree! Curricula</a> to our acoustic albums like <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./cabd74f68f/d3f452150d/d3a8eebdfe">Blossoms</a> and <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./cabd74f68f/d3f452150d/b9c1a5f532">Sanctuary</a>, we dedicate all of our work to creating a more peaceful world, one pair of ears at a time. Dr. Michael Irwin of the Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology / Jane & Terry Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior, said this about our music:<br />
<blockquote>
<em>"The relaxation response induces a profound state of deep rest, which when practiced and applied to our daily lives, can alter how we respond to physical and emotional stress. The music of Merrill Collins is, in my view, important in facilitating the transition into this state of deep relaxation." </em></blockquote>

It is from <em>Cello and Piano Sanctuary</em>, this month's featured album, which is a best-seller at San Francisco's Grace Cathedral, and is often played for those walking their famous labrynth.</p> <h2> My Father's House</h2> <p> We just finished a brand-new recording of <em>My Father's House</em>. The song comes from a musical I wrote in 1979 called <em>Follow That Star.</em> Historically, it's one of people's favorites of all the songs I've ever written. This is the first time this version has been recorded, and it features tenor <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./ca707a57e4/a248398a31/890cba21c9">Andrew Bennett</a> and 'cellist Michael Fitzpatrick, <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./ca707a57e4/a248398a31/fdc38e610b" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204); " target="_blank">www.michaelfitzpatrick.com</a> .

</tbody> </table></td> <td valign="top">This Monday is Martin Luther King day, and all over the country, people will be doing community service and celebrating human rights, one of my favorite things to teach, and one of the most important things for us all to understand.<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Every Man, Woman, and Child</b></span><br />

This song is part of the <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./b44de654b7/a248398a31/7113734323">We Agree Curriculum</a>, and provides a very engaging method for studying the <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./b44de654b7/a248398a31/c5c0b6c5c7">Universal Declaration of Human Rights</a> (UDHR) in great detail. Participants (4th grade and up) are assigned articles of the document to research and present. As the song is played, each performer approaches the microphone and declares one of the thirty articles. The lyrics are sung by the whole group, with hand motions and everything!<br />
<br />

These are wonderful activities for church groups, Drama, Social Studies and Music teachers at all levels, and any group who wants to participate in a Martin Luther King Oratorical Contest. Please pass this on to anyone you think who might be interested. <a href="http://oi.vresp.com/f2af/v4/send_to_friend.html?ch=b44de654b7&lid=1357012223&ldh=a248398a31">Forward this message to a friend</a><br />

This month, <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./b44de654b7/a248398a31/4ece1ac39c">our featured song page</a> includes not one but TWO versions of the EMWC, with vocals by a wonderful mother/son duo, Michelle and Harrison Crenshaw.

<h2> Have a Peaceful Holiday</h2><b><a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./b60ed7db51/a248398a31/2483b2fc07">Christmas Presence</a></b>, which is now being played on radio internationally (hooray!), has been our best-selling CD for fifteen years.<br />
<ul><li> Churches and cathedrals play it during Advent and Christmas season.</li>
<li> Christian ministers and priests keep it on in the background.</li>
<li> Gift shops, restaurants and coffee shops play it to create seasonal ambience.</li>
<li> Bodyworkers and spas play it because it is soothing and de-stressing. One Reiki healer said, <i>"It helped my clients relax into healing and open to the peace, not the stress, of the season.”</i></li>
<li> People at home play it for peaceful dinner, entertainment, and chill-out time with family and friends.</li>
<li> and people love to play it while they drive in traffic!</li>

At the studio we passed around his picture so we could be playing music to him as if in person. The song is a flute, guitar, and grand piano arrangement with improvisations over descending lines that brings to life various scales from distant times and lands. <br />
<br />
Any new baby or parent will enjoy <a href="http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/merrillcollins27">Within You (Lullaby for Bobby)</a>, which is over ten minutes long, providing a relaxing theme for nursing or naptime. <br />
<br />
But everyone thought a custom lullaby was such a wonderful idea, we had to do more! The next few babies and kids, Loki and Ruka, love their songs, too! <br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Amazing Grace! </b></span><br />
<br />
I recorded Amazing Grace in 2009 with my friend and longtime collaborator Joseph Hèbert, for our second album, <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./cbc780f5e8/019fe557e5/08144ba867">Cello & Piano Sanctuary</a>. It is a song musicians have many opportunities to play, and we came up with a new , refreshing version.<br />
The U.S. Library of Congress has a collection of 3,000 versions of Amazing Grace, including ours, which features an interesting "conversation" between a wondering, childlike piano descant and the gentle guidance of a caring, mature cello.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>(how sweet the sound)</b></span><br />
<a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./cbc780f5e8/019fe557e5/6b78bfd771">Click this link</a> and you can not only hear the song, but enjoy a gorgeous video by Yvon Chausseblanche featuring egrets at sunrise at a bird sanctuary, a beautiful symbol of retreat. <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?SpiralingMusicCo./cbc780f5e8/019fe557e5/c7adc78c81">Click this link</a> to enjoy the entire album.<br />
<br />
All over the world, there are good people struggling for freedom, for their rights, for their livelihoods and their lives. I wish I could reach out and send support to each and every one of them in their struggles, both here in the U.S. and all around the world.<br />
<br />
I am hoping while you listen and watch and enjoy you can help me send a quiet signal of strength to those who need it, and a prayer that grace will find us all.<br />
