"I wrote this song between October and December of 2022. This melody and tune came from a place of hope. The cover art for this song is a stunning John Clement photograph of the rising and hopeful sun warming a winter landscape. I knew that image had to be a part of this piece. May this song take you Where Hope Rises."

FOREVER
©℗ 2023 Michael Newhouse Allison
Forever is a solo piano single about a deeply personal searching and surrendering that steadily builds to an exuberant and passionate musical declaration.

"More than a collection of piano solos, but a pouring out of the heart and deepest emotions. A statement of life amidst both the uncertain grey and shining blue where eagles fly."
"Welcome to Where Eagles Fly. This is a special album to me and I hope it becomes special for you too. It was recorded back in 1993 and as I listen to it now so many memories come flooding into view, so many years and so many stories to tell from my life, in the framework around each piece, and in the passion that compelled this work. I hope this music of Where Eagles Fly will find its way into your heart."
- Michael

"...some of the finest and most unique piano recordings I’ve heard in many years."
- Will Ackerman
“Michael Newhouse Allison asks a lot of himself. Working as his producer, I watched and listened to a man who is pushing himself to accomplish remarkable things in both his composition and performance. The net result is some of the finest and most unique piano recordings I’ve heard in many years. His musical voice is singular and his performances are equal to that.”
- Will Ackerman, founder of Windham Hill Records.
"These three piano solo pieces were meticulously crafted on my beloved old Chicago Cabinet Grand (see album cover), and recorded in Vermont on the most beautiful Steinway B grand piano I have ever had the pleasure of playing. Each song holds deep personal meaning and is designed to be listened to as a suite, a collection telling a story of holding on, letting go, and living in this moment. I hope it touches you and helps you with your own holding on, letting go, and living in the moments of your life. If this music moves you please join my email list so I can notify you of any concerts or new releases."
Take care, - Michael

Christmas Time & Bells Are Ringing
©℗ 2022 Michael Newhouse Allison
Here is a something a little different for you. I was motivated and in the mood to write a joyful, hopeful Christmas song. It's not my usual solo piano, but instead I've thrown a good collection of instruments into this along with wonderful vocals from Justine Saville.
See the lyrics below. Set this song to loop on your favorite streaming app and sing along!
Christmas time
and bells are ringing
Children dream
and choirs singing
Christ is born
The savior’s given
Hope and joy
and sins forgiven
Sing it out
oh oh oh
Tell the world
oh oh oh
He is here
Christ the Lord
Messiah is
Wonderful
oh oh oh
Counselor
oh oh oh
Prince of Peace
Immanuel
Led by starlight
Through the dark night
Humble savior
In a manger
Oh see him sleeping
Our world keeping
Glory to God
In the highest
And peace on earth to
all who trust Him
Son of God
kingdom without end
Holy is His name
Forever!
