SOME OF THE MUSICIANS
IN VOICES FOR FREEDOM |
Samples of some of the great music in Voices For Freedom. We are also very fortunate to have quite a few musicians as friends who kindly participated as well. Many are Grammy winners, and several are Native American musicians. Some of them are:
- Joanne Shenandoah and Bill Miller, who both won the Grammy for Best
Album of Native American Music in 2006, appear several times.
- Mary Youngblood performs her Grammy-winning song, "Beneath The Raven
Moon."
- Bill Payne, keyboard genius of the great band Little Feat,performs a
song "Rainbow Silence" from his first solo CD.
- Gary Morris (who popularized the song "Wind Beneath My Wings")
performs a song from his Grammy-winning soundtrack from "Les
Miserables" on Broad
way called "Bring Him Home." In this production, we
are presenting "Bring Him Home" to express a wish that we can one day
bring His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Tibetans living in exile home
to Tibet (in a manner acceptable to all concerned). We are grateful to
Gary Morris for his allowing us to utilize his beautiful performance to
support the Tibetans in a true spirit of humanitarian and
inter-religious helpfulness. Although Gary is neither Tibetan Buddhist
nor Native American, he open-heartedly allowed the use of his
performance of "Bring Him Home' with an intention to aid these people;
it was filmed in the U. S. S. R. accompanied by classical musicians.
In fact, all the musicians appearing in "Voices For Freedom" have
approached this project with the same wish to help, and we thank all of
them for their contributions. More recently, Gary Morris has produced
a new CD in which he recorded songs of religious and inspirational
significance called "I Believe." They were especially selected by Gary
as a musical gift to his sons.
- Nashville-based singer/songwriter Danny Flowers performs his
beautiful original "Prayer Song" in which he is backed up by Bill
Miller and music legend Emmylou Harris. This song is from Danny's
newest CD called "Tools For The Soul." We were fortunate to produce a
lovely music video of Danny's performance of this song especially for
"Voices For Freedom."
