"An artist who is responsive to her world." — Today's Artists

"Absolutely breathtaking. The caliber of musicianship and overall performances are stellar." — Taxi Reviewer

"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." —Dr. Michael Irwin, Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology / Jane & Terry Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior
