1. Cadence Spalding – Save the World
It wasn’t hard for NewAgeMusic.nu editors to choose the top title for 2009. Rarely have we been presented for a title that answers the “what is new age music” question better. Cadence Spalding’s Save the world illustrates everything that is great about new age music. To quote John P. Olsen’s review: “Save The World is classical New Age pop, hosting a pleasant mix of ballads finely tuned to perfection in the purest sense. Classical touches of soft angelic vocals appears as lullabies at times, gently rocking you into a contented state, while anthem stanzas increase in momentum, rising above to greet the occasion. “
Save The World is, as the title implies, an album with a message. We all have to do our part to save mother Earth – it is a message that has to be repeated again and again. How to save the world? Trust in love. Cadence Spalding’s album is not to be missed

Cadence Spalding
2009 / Sound Manipulations and JSA Music CD 49’52” / DVD 52’29”
“Save The World” is the debut solo CD by Cadence Spalding. The wife of multi-instrumentalist and producer Mars Lasar, Spalding has appeared on several of Lasar’s previous recordings. Lasar co-produced, recorded, and plays this CD as well. What is most impressive about “Save The World” is the soothing effect of the choir of 10,000 voices, all of which are layers of Cadence’s voice. Cadence composed the music and three pieces were co-written with Lasar. She also plays the piano and violin with Lasar adding more piano, bass, and keyboards. The themes of the album are the power of love, peace, and the need to care for Earth and the voiceless creatures that need our protection. Cadence’s sincerity is palpable as is her deep emotional connection to the music and its message. Comparisons to Enya and 2002 are inevitable, but Cadence definitely has her own voice and vision.
The two-disc set includes a DVD of all of music paired with breathtaking double micro digital photographs by Mars Lasar of flowers, seascapes, the CA wine country, animals, children, and landscapes. The music is very effective alone, but the pairing with the photography provides a powerful sensory experience.
The first of the eleven tracks is “Trust In Love,” a simple melody that carries a message of love on a global as well as a personal level. The ethereal vocals have minimal accompaniment, but the sound is rich and lush. The title track is more instrumental (including Cadence’s voice), with the words “Save The World” repeated throughout. “Grandma’s Song” celebrates family love and a special bond between a young girl and her grandmother - a favorite! “I Do,” “Here To Love You,” and “My Man” are love songs, pure and simple, made heavenly by layers of voices, piano, and keyboards. I also really like “Share Your Life,” which also appears in a remixed version. The words tell us to open our lives and hearts to others to begin the global healing process and to make a difference in the world - beautiful in every way. “Hosanna” just sort of floats on the air, creating a mood of peaceful contentment. “Kyrie Eleison” (Greek for “Lord have mercy”) is a mother’s gentle, loving prayer for her young son. It seems to trail off at the end, but then returns after a period of silence, complete with bagpipes, to act as a grand finale of sorts.
“Save The World” is a very impressive debut, and Cadence Spalding assures us that another CD is on the way soon - something to look forward to! The CD and DVD are available separately from most online music outlets and together from www.cadencespalding.com. Recommended!

Reviewed by Michael Debbage
The year 2007 was when the listener public was first introduced to Cadence Spalding when she was prominently featured on Mars Lasar’s stellar Christmas album, " A Star Is Born." A lot can change in two years and "Save The World" is clear evidence of such radical changes with a role reversal of Cadence Spalding’s solo debut featuring Mars Lasar essentially as the producer. And a dazzling solo effort it is, emphasizing the fact that the starlet is fast becoming her own shining star.
"Save The World" is a generous CD/DVD package that spotlights Cadence Spalding both as a vocalist and an instrumentalist who is more than capable of playing the keyboards and the violin. The latter can be heard on the silky smooth “Here To Love You” and the epic closer “Kyrie Eleison” which is essential a re-working of “El Capitan” from Mars Lasar’s "Yosemite" album. Cadence also re-works Lasar’s “See Me” that transforms into the rhythmic and soulful title track that brings to mind the influences of U2 in a more conservative fashion.
Otherwise, the album prominently features the exquisitely sweet intoxicating talents of Spalding who writes the balance of the songs on her own. The album focuses on her sea of voices unified into an almost choir of Cadences. In fact, the sleeve notes indicate that the album includes a blending and layering of over 10,000 voices. Needless to say the effects at times are exhilarating and are more than capable of being sweet and seductive all at the same time. The classic example can be found on the mesmerizing “Grandma’s Song,” though the simple title would certainly seem to contradict this, as does the closing frames of its visual counterpart on the DVD.
Speaking of the DVD, the “What A Wonderful World” theme is clearly the artistic expression of Spalding’s love for Mother Earth and its finite and precious capability of being our dwelling place. Much like the production values of the audio presentation, Lasar, a photographer in his own right, most likely had significant input on the visual delight.
While production efforts are credited to both Cadence and Mars Lasar, Lasar’s trademark sound manipulations are omnipresent. But unlike "A Star Is Born," the main event is certainly the mesmerizing voice of Cadence Spalding. Along with her love and passion for Mother Earth as well as her trust and faith in that which we cannot see, "Save The World" is all about a star that has already been born and now shows every inclination of blossoming very quickly into a
household name.

The fact that the new album, ?Save the World? by Cadence Spalding and Mars Lasar
is simply beautiful, really comes as no surprise. Anyone who is familiar with the
often spellbinding melodies that escapes from the body and soul of Mars Lasar
knows all to well that he always delivers not just incredible music, but a spiritual
journey as well. I?m not even altogether sure that this was deliberate on the part of
Mars and his previous works. It?s merely what happens when he gives the world the
sounds he wants to share with us. It?s always a fabulous and soothing ride.
The fact that Mars would attach his name to this new album - an album primarily
written and performed by Cadence, with Mars of course showing his unmistakable
style on every track, it speaks volumes of the immeasurable talent of Cadence and
of course the belief Mars has in her. Cadence has a lovely, soothing, pacifying voice
that when heard, one can?t help but stop what they?re doing and listen.
Another marvellous additive to this new album is that it has a wonderful pictorial
DVD attached as well. What Cadence and Mars offers while listening to the magic
of this album is a journey through the various tracks, showcasing another shining
talent that Mars holds within him - his keen eye behind the camera. The colors,
beauty and vibrancy of nature and life that Mars captures inside his lens displays
clearly what I affectionately like to call, OEfrozen moments in time?. Couple that with
the magic of this relaxing album and one is left with a journey that can?t help but
envelope us in its calming properties. In short, it?s simply a delightful experience.
At the time I received this new DVD/album, I had just made a fresh pot of coffee,
one of the simple pleasures of my life. I poured a cup, sat back and played the DVD
and as I suspected would happen, was thoroughly captivated by the voyage of
sights and sounds Cadence and Mars took me on. It was wonderful. As usual, Mars
doesn?t disappoint. This merging of the talents of Cadence Spalding and Mars Lasar
is a simple OEmust have? for those of us who truly love music.
Well done to the both of you.

“Save The World” is a beautiful title for the first solo work of singer Jennifer Spalding a Californian, known as Cadence Spalding musically. We heard the voice of the singer on the album "A Star Is Born" by she and Mars Lasar and for us it was the birth of a new star, a woman who loved us from that very moment. Her voice is delicate, sweet, beautiful and perfectly accompanied by the melodies created by Mars Lasar for that work, and now comes the lone entry in this "Save The World", a work which has the superb production and keyboards of Mars Lasar. “Save The World" is a beautiful work, a dream to enjoy and a record, a disc to quietly enjoy, a feast of music, from its beginning to its end, eleven subjects with a beautiful dream instrumentation that moves between the classical, pop and new age, but above all, the voice, that warm voice of Cadence Spalding seems to move to a magical world where there is only beauty and happiness. The menu of this "Save The World" does not end there, as this disc brings a wonderful gift that is a DVD where we are the items contained in the disc, but superimposed on beautiful photographs taken by Mars Lasar, a beautiful panoramic that is the perfect accompaniment for this wonderful music and voice. "Save The World", what a beautiful, beautiful way to work, the first solo Jennifer Spalding, offering hope that many more will follow us because they are the voices we like to enjoy, and we can enjoy these little by little, and we do because we do like to dream, and it makes us appreciate the beauty that surrounds us in this world that we ourselves take charge of destroying.
"Save the World", thanks Jennifer (Cadence).
REVIEW by Justin Farrar
“...Spalding, following a path carved by Enya and Anael, crafts a new age pop that sounds like a choir of nymphs who have been filling ancient Celtic forests with song and dance since the days of Morgan le Fay. Kudos to producer and composer Mars Lasar; much of Save the World’s fantastical aesthetic is the product of his studio prowess. Apparently, the dude used over 10,000 vocal takes! Of course, at the core lies Spalding’s voice, an instrument that’s soothing in its patience and otherworldliness...”

“...In 2007, Cadence Spalding debuts in Mars Lasar’s Christmas album “Star Is Born”, by which we keep in mind the characteristics of her voice. (February 2009), Mars Lasar personally wields the sword for Cadence Spalding to create her first album “Save The World”, together with minor accompaniment dense and full of songs so that the level of Cadence spalding is fast becoming a shining star. Published simultaneously with the CD also released a fine DVD edition, with double micro-imaging photography, music with the flowers, oceans, animals, children and the natural landscape, to create an original sound and visual experience. CD and DVD can be purchased from online music stores (CD Baby, Amazon, Itunes, Cadencespalding.com). In this album Mars Lasar is responsible for the music arrangements and production, while the piano, violin, keyboard and acoustic musical instruments are single-handedly by Cadence Spalding. One of classical and popular compatible epic creative and ingenious in weaving, emotional and spiritual harmony, and ease of angels singing, all show the profound effect Cadence Spalding. Listen to Cadence singing, you can not put her with Enya, 2002 band to do comparison, the only voice more pure Cadence. Some very vividly depicts the Cadence of musical styles, like Enya meets Jewel and Joni Mitchell. Of course the producer Mars Lasar credits, he holds the most advanced audio production techniques and the use of innovative technology in thousands of vocal layers to melt into synchronized (sound), to make improvements. The first time ever, in exquisite piano floating up, our minds floating drum dance, and singing at us gently, rotating around. The precise intonation so that the voice is so great that such a beauty, Mars Lasar has exceeded all of history! Cadence Spalding and Mars Lasar’s work together to build a mind is longing for the pure paradise. In addition, Cadence Spalding in this album apart from extol the power of love and world peace, but also conveys (concept) to protect the earth and animals. A pick-me-up for the hearts of original people...”
