A film by Yulia Mahr.
Solo Violin: Mari Samuelsen
Piano: Max Richter
Mercy, written ten years ago for Hilary Hahn, and played here so beautifully by Mari Samuelsen, was the starting point for the whole of VOICES. Over the years of working on the project, the music has taken many forms, nearly all of them put to one side, but the music of Mercy has always been a sort of pole star, guiding the rest of the piece. Yulia’s beautiful film places the question of mercy and compassion firmly into our everyday world. We are all in this together.

WOW! I am speechless. There is suffering in everyone's life . We just need to empathise and sympathise. We need see the bigger picture. We are born, live and die. We need to be kind and help each other because there is suffering in everyone's life. Let us be unconditionally kind. Let us Love unconditionally. May all living beings be well and happy. (The practise of " Metta" loving kindness in Buddhism ). This kind of music for those who truly enjoy music. This will not be on billboard top 100 , but it will heal thousands of souls.

" “Who are you?” Well, you say, “I’m Paul Jones,” or whatever your name happens to be. I say, “Oh, no, no, no, no, don’t give me that stuff. Who are you really?” And you think, “Well, of course I’m just-I’m just me.” “No! Don’t give me that! I don’t want to hear all that nonsense. You’re playing a trick on me. Really, deep down, who are you?” “I don’t know!” Well, that’s the thing to find out. That’s the thing that’s been forgotten, see? That’s the underside of the tapestry; the thing that’s been left out." Alan Watts

Max Richter, I want you to know you have emotionally ripped my heart out & handed it to me with this song. There is one other of yours that also has the same effect on me.....November. I am a 68 year old woman, home bound because of my health with numerous problems. I have accepted I am winding down my life. I wish I had done more, done things differently, could have another chance & maybe I will get one in my next life. I have gotten into music more & yours touches my heart. It lets me know it's still in there doing it's thing for now. But soon enough it will end & I hope some of your beautiful music will be playing for me as I leave this world. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent, your beautiful music with us.....with me. Jamie Crabtree-Messenger.....Tennessee

It is wondrous just how emotionally moving, evocative, and connected a seemingly random series of unrelated scenes become by the addition of music that knits the images together into a relevant whole. Richter's compositions are so seemingly simple and yet so stunningly heart-rending.

The human condition. What does it mean to be human? The sadness, pervasive in so many's eyes... the fleeting moments of happiness... the depression lurking under the surface... the struggle just to survive... the beauty in raw moments... nature's unrelenting magnificence... sunshine on faces... warmth... melancholy... reminiscence... childhood... not knowing what lies ahead... it's all these things and somehow we choose every day whether it's worth the fight.
